Synopsis:

Generations: The Fishing Families of Hastings is a photographic portrayal from the 1990s to the present day of the men and women of Britain’s oldest beach-launched fishing community. Realised by the photojournalist and Hastings resident John Cole, the book portrays a unique community that may soon become extinct. Generations is in the tradition of such classic photojournalists as Sebastiao Salgado, Don McCullin and Henri Cartier-Bresson. Cole’s images document the passing of a way of working, of skills that have been handed down from generation to generation.

About the Author: For more than thirty-five years, John Cole has worked as a photojournalist for the Sunday Times, the Observer, the Independent, as well as for leading design and advertising agencies. He has photographed Mohammed Ali, Nelson Mandela and Princess Diana, along with countless other famous and not quite so famous celebrities. His photographs have been exhibited in New York, South Africa, London and throughout the UK. However, John’s true passion is photographing ordinary people doing extraordinary things, giving voice to those who may not have a voice of their own, such as the men and women of the Hastings fishing community.
