Proving ground



‘Atomized’, my essay on the ruins of a gunpowder works near Faversham, Kent, that exploded in April 1916, killing 108 people, is in the new issue of The Dublin Review.

I’ve written a catalogue essay on the Swedish photographer Anders Petersen, one of four nominees for the 2007 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize. The winner will be announced on 21 March at the Photographers’ Gallery, London.

My latest column for frieze is on Secrets of Women, by Katharine Park: a fascinating (if somewhat narrowly focussed) study of human dissection in the late Middle Ages.
