Synopsis
Since they were founded in 2001, Trolley Books has been highly regarded as a maverick independent publisher of photography, reportage, contemporary art and recently, literature. Trolley's visionary founder Gigi Giannuzzi passed away on Christmas Eve 2012 from pancreatic cancer; devastating news for many who knew and respected his work as one of the bravest and most beautiful of creative forces, publishing through Trolley many important and underexposed stories, but also personally, as a rare and one-off crazy spirit. Shortly before he died work began on TROLLEYOLOGY, to celebrate the first ten years of the award-winning books and authors and as a homage to Gigi's unique vision. A chronological anthology of the best from each publication, with behind the scenes and previously unseen material, personal photos, contact sheets, letters and interviews with the photographers, writers and artists Trolley has worked with over the last decade. TROLLEYOLOGY will bring together many renowned contributors including photographers Nan Goldin, Philip Jones Griffiths, Alex Majoli, Stanley Greene, Paolo Pellegrin, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Tom Stoddart, Nina Berman, Thomas Dworzak, Alixandra Fazzina, Robin Maddock, Jamie Morgan, artists Paul Fryer, Sarah Lucas, Polly Morgan, Mat Collishaw, and writers Iphgenia Baal, Julian Stallabrass, with an introduction by cultural historian Barry Miles. TROLLEYOLOGY is simultaneaously an anthology and autobiography of the unorthodox vision and passion that has consumed Trolley Books over the past ten years and sets the bar unimaginably high for the next ten.
