A chronicler of post war Britain. Colin Jones’s work covered a wide spectrum of cultural life in the sixties and seventies ranging from the Royal Ballet to the Who early in their career. In contrast to this he captured a grittier side of Britain with his photos impressively documenting the industrial decline in the North and Afro-Caribbean Lives outside mainstream British culture.
His work is held in major collections including the V&A and has been shown at venues such as The Photographers’ Gallery and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.
