Bullring by Michael Hallett

A lavishly illustrated book documenting the reconstruction and development of Bullring in Birmingham, Europe's largest city centre, retail led regeneration project of recent decades. Using a novel form of representation, the panoramic photographic construction, Michael Hallett has produced a series of fascinating colour montages that are works of art in their own right and yet are also a detailed record of the rebuilding of Birmingham's famous market and retail centre. The colour images are accompanied by a new history of the Bullring as a market centre written by historian Chris Upton and several Birmingham photographers have contributed their own photographic images showing this historic site over the years. The book has the official backing of the Birmingham Alliance, the investment group that was at the heart of the Bullring redevelopment project.
Michael Hallett is a photographic historian, journalist and biographer. He is the author of Bullring: The Heart of Birmingham (2003, with Peter James) and The Real Story of Picture Post (1994, with layout by Stefan Lorant).
