Simon Norfolk's book Afghanistan (Dewis Lewis, 2002) is recognised as a classic of photography. In 2010, he returned to the country, following in the footsteps of 19th century photographer John Burke - a superb but virtually unknown war photographer whose eloquent and beautiful work of the second Anglo-Afghan war (1878-1880) provide an extraordinary record. Norfolk's new work looks at how the nature and practice of war has changed since Burke's day, is loosely re-photographic in nature and presented as a collaboration between the two artists.
