“ALL PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MEMENTO MORI. TO TAKE A PHOTOGRAPH IS TO PARTICIPATE IN ANOTHER PERSON’S (OR THING’S) MORTALITY, VULNERABILITY,MUTABILITY. PRECISELY BY SLICING OUT THIS MOMENT AND FREEZING IT, ALL PHOTOGRAPHS TESTIFY TO TIME’S RELENTLESS MELT.” SUSAN SONTAG I’m an Explorer, a social documenter and I like to follow my nose.

Round about this time last year I sat in my friend Russell Kremp’s kitchen discussing an idea about starting a magazine that would tie together a lot of what we were doing at the time; rediscovering Bradford’s vibrant arts and culture scene.

The thing that excites me is the chance encounter, and the beautiful people who are part of the experience. This is what we have set out to do over the past eight issues, looking to capture some of those moments and offer a platform where people can share their insight and share their stories.

This is the first in a three part series documenting Bradford through featured photography. Each issue will seek to capture a mode, a fashion and the heart of the city seen from a particular vantage point.

In this issue we are blessed with words from Anne McNiell, director of Impressions Gallery. Her introduction to Bradford as a city of photography contextualises the photographic series we are about to embark on over the coming six months.

Nudrat Afza’s portraits explore intimately the people and the stories that were the life blood of Ken Moore’s salon on Toller Lane. The accompanying interviews were produced by Caroline Hick, curator of an exhibition of Nudrat’s work, called “The Salon”, that is currently showing at the University of Bradford’s Gallery II. The photographs were taken over the space of a year shortly before the Salon closed. We are moving on. ‘Time’s relentless melt’ manifests itself as shops, businesses and meeting places closing, and new ones opening. It is vital to celebrate and document these spaces for ourselves and for the city, not only for prosperity but in examining these pictures we have the opportunity to learn, to see ourselves, and to empathise with the soul of a vibrant city in flux.

Issue 8 saw Haigh Simpson edit and produce his last issue. Great praise must be expressed for his immense contribution and belief in the magazine. It is important to reflect on our journey and celebrate the fact that Haigh has found his dream opportunity working as an editor of a family of hyper-local magazines.

It is truly remarkable how much we have achieved and it’s time to savour that as we look to the future. We have been contemplating our role in the city and understand that the contribution we have made really has made a difference. We have taken time to develop a route plan that promises...

We hope you like the change of perspective. Feedback on our creative direction is always greatly received and we welcome contributions, ideas, and proposals. Get in touch.

Enjoy.

BRADFORD: BRITAIN’S CENTRE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY. WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE. ANNE MCNEILL

WHEN I WAS A WEE GIRL AT THE AGE OF SEVEN, GROWING UP IN GLASGOW, I SAW A PROGRAMME ON TELLY ABOUT TWO YOUNG ENGLISH GIRLS CALLED ELSIE AND FRANCES. THESE TWO YORKSHIRE LASSIES HAD TAKEN PHOTOGRAPHS OF FAIRIES PLAYING AT THE BOTTOM OF THEIR GARDEN. I WAS HOOKED. THAT CHRISTMAS I ASKED SANTA FOR A CAMERA. I MUST HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD BECAUSE IN MY STOCKING WAS A KODAK INSTAMATIC133X CARTRIDGE FILM CAMERA. I HAVE LOVED PHOTOGRAPHY EVER SINCE. For those who don’t know the story, in 1917 Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, who lived in Cottingley on the edge of Bradford, took a series of five photographs of fairies dancing and frolicking. Three years later, these photographs became famous when Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the writer of Sherlock Holmes, published them to illustrate an essay he had written for the Christmas edition of The Strand Magazine. In the early 1980s Elsie and Frances admitted that four of the photographs were faked using cardboard cutouts of imps and pixies copied from Victorian children’s books. Yet Frances swore, even on her deathbed, to the veracity of the fifth and final photograph. It is real.

thought-provoking and inspiring.

Don’t underestimate the power of the photographic image.

Bradford has a rich photographic heritage. The National Media Museum houses the nation’s ‘jewel in thecrown’; the National Photography

Collection. Bradford College alumni embark on successful photography careers. Along with the University they have supported more than ten mid-career photographers through the internationally prestigious Bradford Fellowship.

Bradford Museums and Galleries have a wealth of photographic archives, such as Belle Vue...

The photographs are on display at the National Media Museum and I now live in Cottingley, stalking fairies.

...Studios, once situated on thenfashionable Manningham Lane, whose portraits captured the early days of our Asian community. Also the pinsharp evidence of Bradford’s heyday and thriving industries recorded by C.H. Woods and Bradford Heritage Recording Unit, which captures memories of people of all ages, class and ethnicity through family albums and work by commercial photographers.

There is an abundance of professional, amateur, and grassroots practitioners.

Bradford Grid, a core of photographers and academics, are undertaking an ongoing eclectic survey of the city and its surrounding towns and countryside, along with active photographic societies and camera clubs.

Much has changed since Impressions Gallery RSVPed to Bradford Council’s invitation and moved from York to play a part in the cultural renaissance and regeneration of this city. Since then it has built a gallery and shown over thirty artists in twenty-six exhibitions. City Park has been built. The Odeon still stands. Bradford is UNESCO’s world first City of Film. The National Museum of Photography, Film & Television changed its name to National Media Museum and revealed it has the world’s earliest surviving negative. Bradford University set up a new photography degree. Fabric’s temporary art spaces showcase local photographers. We instigated Ways Of Looking, the UK’s newest photography festival, which attracted more than 47,500 visitors into the city last October. People are discovering we are a creative place. It feels like Bradford is on the brink of something new and exciting.

We’ve learnt from the Odeon campaign that vision, grit, determination and wit go a long way. And, you know what, we can work together, we can build a critical mass so that in ten years time Bradford and photography - along with film - will be mentioned in the same breath. A place known worldwide as Britain’s central and cultural hub for photography.

FEATURED ARTIST NUDRAT AFZA

AROUND 20 YEARS AGO NUDRAT AFZA WAS GIVEN A CAMERA, A CANON AE1, AND STARTED TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS OF PEOPLE AND PLACES IN HER LOCAL NEIGHBOURHOOD OF MANNINGHAM, IN BRADFORD. SHE STILL USES THIS CAMERA TODAY. This year Nudrat Afza has returned to her immediate neighbourhood in Heaton, to document the last months of a small local hair salon, whose owner has worked there since the 1960s, when he began his apprenticeship at the age of 16. The Salon is a collection of photographs by Nudrat which captures the end of an era and the disappearing world of the salon and its regular clientele.

In this issue HowDo?! is pleased to feature some of the photographs from this collection. If this whets your appetite then get along to Gallery II at the University of Bradford, where the work is being shown from now ‘til 16th November.

We also have an excerpt from the foreword to the exhibition catalogue, by The Guardian’s Martin Wainwright and we hear from salon owner Ken Moore, in conversation with Gallery II curator Caroline Hick, about his life in the salon.

Having been originally based in Leeds, husband and wife co-founder team, Dr Geetha Upadhyaya (current CEO and Artistic Director) and Dr Shripati Upadhyaya, chose to establish Kala Sangam in Bradford as a permanent home.

Dr Geetha Upadhyaya said: “Bradford was a natural choice for our new home as the city is an exciting mixing pot of many

different cultures, and Kala Sangam’s mission is “bring people together through the artsâ€?. We wanted to provide the city with a hub for events, where talent could be nurtured and people of all backgrounds could come together and learn about the rich cultural heritage of south Asia and its inuence on modernday Western culture.â€?

THE KENMORE SALON NUDRAT AFZA

“I HAVE KNOWN THE KENMORE SALON ON TOLLER LANE SINCE I WAS A TEENAGER GROWING UP IN MANNINGHAM IN THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES.” I used to pass it every day on the bus to school and I can remember one day seeing the owner, Ken, standing outside his newly modernised premises.

Last year, guessing the owner would be approaching retirement, I decided to find a way to go into the salon as a photographer because I was curious to know what was happening. So I made an appointment for my daughter to have her hair cut there.

12

My first impression of the salon inside was that it was a particularly fine example of late modern decor from the seventies and early eighties. I asked the hairdresser if anyone had ever photographed the salon, and when he said no, I asked if I could. He seemed surprised but agreed. I learned that Ken was planning to sell the business when he retired and with his consent, I decided to photograph the last year of the salon.

As the work has progressed, not only have I had the chance to acknowledge the hairdresser’s skill and expertise, I have also got to know most of his clients – more than one hundred of them by now. This body of work has become a record of a particular place and passing era.

I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to get to know Ken and his clientele. They have been truly inspirational for me.

Lifting the Lid on Quality Made in Yorkshire by Artists for Artists, my range of Artist’s Acrylics has been devised to bring the latest paint technology to serious artists who will appreciate the quality of this new range of British made Artists Acrylics.

It is very simple, showing a little British Asian girl leaning against the doorway of a house with the bold number 10.

Its title is equally simple – Number Ten - but for me it evokes a whole lifetime of memories and experiences: working on the Telegraph & Argus in the 1970s; living in Southfield Square in Manningham and helping to save it from the bulldozers, along with its many fine doorways like the one on the postcard; and having hundreds of cups of sweet, milky tea with British Asian neighbours while their children, bright

and as full of their futures as the girl in the doorway, darted in and out.

This is a lot to bring to a picture which, to other eyes, may be just an anonymous girl in an everyday setting. But that is why I like Nudrat Afza’s work so much.

She captures the ordinary world in an unassuming manner, very different from that of better-known and more self-conscious photographers. In other words, she sees the world as we, the passers-by, see it. Then, unsteered and unprodded, we add our own references and reactions ourselves.

40 YEARS OF IMPRESSIONS GALLERY: A (VERY) BRIEF HISTORY. ANNE MCNEILL

‘TO MANY PEOPLE, THE IDEA OF THE ‘GALLERY’ PRESENTS AN IMAGE OF SELECT EXCLUSIVENESS, OF DOLLAR-HAPPY INVESTORS, OF SEEKERS OF THE EASILY AVAILABLE IN CULTURE. WE HOPE VERY MUCH THAT OUR GALLERY GOES SOME OF THE WAY TOWARDS DISPELLING THIS IMAGE, AS WE BELIEVE THE ROLE OF THE GALLERY IS BECOMING THAT OF A CENTRE OF EDUCATION, INFORMATION AND WE HOPE, ENJOYMENT.’ IMPRESSIONS GALLERY REPORT, 1973.

Impressions Gallery opened in November 1972, in a room above a shop in the city of York. As one of the first independent photography galleries in Europe we have played a vital role in British photographic culture and have earned a reputation as one of the UK’s leading venues for photography.

Amongst the many photographs, old press releases, letterset leaflets and personal letters that sit within our grey archive boxes there is a typed document from 1973 by co-founder Val Williams, in which she writes: ‘The gallery was based on hope, a certain amount of good will, an overdraft, and the conviction that photography must be recognised as an important part of art and everyday life.’

Seven years ago we relocated to Bradford. Moving cities was a bold and brave move. For two years we worked in partnership with Bradford Council to

build our bespoke gallery, in Centenary Square’s flagship building. This new space with its urban, almost industrial feel has given us the freedom to show more ambitious large-scale exhibitions.

In August 2007 we opened our doors to international acclaim, with Sharpe’s Wood, a photographic series of eerily beautiful woodland, shot on the edge of the city, by Bradford born and bred Liza Dracup.

Impressions Gallery is an independent charity which commissions photographers to make new work for exhibitions and books. We bring exhibitions of national and international importance to Bradford that everybody is welcome to come and experience.

Our work takes creative and artistic risks.

We have always supported new and emerging photographers. Our first exhibition was also Martin Parr’s - now a member of Magnum and arguably Britain’s most well known photographer. In 2003 we commissioned 59 Productions, a fledgling company which has gone on to art direct for Danny Boyle’s inspirational Olympics opening ceremony.

In 1990 we were the first gallery to stage an exhibition in response to AIDS. More than 20 years on we are still showing hard-hitting work: in 2010 Bringing the War Home contained powerful photographic responses to recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

We have commissioned new work that explores different standpoints on notions of class, race, gender, identity, and politics.

To mark our 40 years we are showcasing an exhibition from October 1984, Roads to Wigan Pier, which takes as its starting point George Orwell’s seminal sociological investigation into the bleak living conditions of the working class in the North of England.

We have a long history of exhibiting woman photographers, such as the late Jo Spence’s 1980s collaborative and pioneering ‘phototherapy’ work, through to Trish Morrissey’s imaginative reworking of family albums.

We exhibit artists from culturally diverse backgrounds. Last year’s visual stories by Joy Gregory, one of the most significant artists from the black British photography movement, looked at a combination of aesthetics and assumptions on black feminine beauty.

We work with mid-career photographers on solo retrospective shows. Two years ago, in recognition of her outstanding contribution to photography, Anna Fox’s autobiographical and darkly comic Cockroach Diary & other stories exhibition was selected for the internationally prestigious Deutsche Börse Photography Prize. Next spring, it’s the turn of ‘local boy done good’ Buttershawborn Paul Reas.

We provide opportunities for local communities to join in. We want people, of all ages and backgrounds, to feel that Impressions is their space.

‘Belief in photography is the most important part of running a photographic gallery’ wrote Val Williams, 1973, and still true now. We have the belief to support artists in meaningful ways and will continue to support photographers based on merit rather than celebrity.

KEN MOORE

IN CONVERSATION WITH CAROLINE HICK

A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE KEN MOORE, OWNER OF THE KENMORE SALON, RETIRED, I POPPED IN FOR A VISIT AND A CHAT. THE LADY WHO WAS HAVING HER HAIR DONE AT THE TIME, DORIS SCOTT, MENTIONED THAT SHE’D STARTED COMING TO THE SALON IN 1974.

I SETTLED DOWN WITH A CUP OF TEA, MADE MYSELF AT HOME AND WATCHED KEN AT WORK. CH:

So you wouldn’t think about staying open a bit longer?

KM: Oh no. I had another dryer blow up yesterday, I’ve only got three left now, everything’s just wearing out.

Everything’s jiggered, if I want to stay on I’ve got to replace it and it’s a bit late in the day for that.

CH: Have you got any plans for what you want to do then?

KM: Well I’m still going to do a little bit of mobile and I’ve a lot of work to do at home and it’ll take some doing sorting this place out and I’m trying to arrange a holiday as well…

CH: I bet you’ve not really taken much time off in all this time.

KM: Well,

24

I went 11 years without a holiday. From 1988 to 1999 I never had a holiday, I worked right through, I just had bank holidays. That was because I had staff who wanted holidays when they wanted them and they didn’t want to work without me being there, so if I closed down and we all had holidays

together, I had them to pay and no money coming in. I couldn’t afford to do it. So once that finished and I had no one working for me, I could just close it down. I wouldn’t get any money but at least I wouldn’t have to pay out.

CH: So when did you start here Ken? KM: I started here November 4th, 1963. I was 16 and I came as an apprentice and I worked for Pauline Shackleton. Then in 1968, she put it up for sale and I bought it. I took over on the 31st of May 1968. If I stayed here ‘til November, I would have been here 49 years.

CH:

That’s fantastic. And how long were you an apprentice for?

KM:

Three years and two years improving, so I hadn’t quite finished when I bought the shop.

We chatted about Ken’s school and training:

KM:

I went to a careers evening gathering and he (the teacher) said if you want to leave school, we’ve got jobs

in panel beating and sheet metal work and I said well I don’t want to do that so he (father) says well if you want to leave school you can come and work with me at the bakery. So that’s what I did.

I said I wanted to be the first out of that school door when we finished in August and I was virtually the last because the teacher said to me, you can take that cup and saucer back to the staff room before you leave (laughter).

And I never got my City and Guilds because I couldn’t get into the day release; there was fifty, maybe a hundred places, something like that and about three hundred of us…

CH: So Ken.

How did you get from the bakers to here? How did you find out about the apprenticeship?

KM:

‘Cos I used to diddle about with some of the staff at the bakery. Dinner time I used to be messing about with their hair and stuff, so I just thought I’d give it a go. I didn’t think I’d do owt about it but then I got this.

I used to stay back two nights a week ‘til 9 o clock at night. She (Pauline Shackleton) used to get models in. It wasn’t only me, she used to do a night class. She trained at Brown and Muffs.

A Mr Kiltz was there, he was Swiss or something like that. He trained her and then she set up here.

CH: You were lucky enough to get all that Brown, Muffs training, then?

KM: I was, yes. Her husband was a rep for a dairy firm. He worked out of the North East so they decided to move to a place called Bishopsthorpe.

CH: So it worked out well for you then.

You just completed your apprenticeship.

KM: Oh yes... I was twenty one when I took over here. It was all different when I first came in, it wasn’t like this at all. It had two bay windows and in the summer of 1973, I had it all done out and revamped.

CH: So you must have been doing really well at that point?

KM: Yes and we worked through it, we’d no shop front in (laughing in background) and we never closed down, the wind were blowing, we had an early frost and snow and people were sat under the dryers with car rugs round them and it was hilarious really, with snow blowing in, but you just did in those days, you just kept going.

In the seventies we had a lot of bombing didn’t we (IRA bomb scares) and one weekend my shop front got pulled out and everyone was saying round here that Ken’s had been bombed out. We were always having to come out of building...

KEN MOORE

IN CONVERSATION WITH CAROLINE HICK

‘COSY, WELCOMING, TRADITIONAL, THE SALON IS A WORLD IN WHICH STURDY BUT AGEING, AND THEREFORE GRADUALLY MORE VULNERABLE, BRADFORDIANS FIND FAMILIARITY IN THEIR EVER-CHANGING CITY. EVEN THE WORD ‘SALON’ IS REASSURING, WITH ITS FRENCH PRONUNCIATION ROUNDED AND SOFTENED BY YORKSHIRE VOICES.’ MARTIN WAINWRIGHT, THE SALON EXHIBITION CATALOGUE

WASH & SET

A couple of ladies have come and gone since I settled down for a chat with Ken. In an unusual break in his day, we talked about the future and what the ladies would do now he was retiring.

Ken started to talk about the passing of an era and the continuing presence of his ageing clientele.

28

KM: I was frightened that before I could get to retiring age, all my clients would have died but a lot of them are in their 90s and still coming. How could you imagine then that your clientele could live ‘til they were 90? I didn’t think I’d be able to work so long, I’m so fortunate. It must be the Bradford air!

I’m used to this type of work - rollers and perming. The generation below now – it’s not that type of work…

CH: How many wash and blow-drys do you have out of all your clients?

KM: Probably about 20 odd. I’ve got well over 100 clients.

I’ve got a couple of clients who are quite disabled and I’ll go and do a wash and set for them. I’m quite prepared to go early morning and set it and then come back when its dried naturally. I have a lady who’ll be 100 next February and so she doesn’t want to go anywhere else. So I’ll just do it for those few and because of their age, I would imagine their premises will be quite warm – that perhaps within two or three hours it might be dry – so I said, well, look, let’s try it and see how it goes and if it doesn’t work out what have we lost?

There’ll never be anything like this once these salons go now, once that

clientele go. I finished work here on the 6th August and I came back on the 20th August and the clients I’ve had in yesterday and today haven’t washed their hair since I last saw them. Now, the clientele that you get today, when they come in to have their hair done, they want to get up tomorrow and wash it, my clients don’t.

It has to last ‘til they come again in one or two weeks. That lady that you just saw come to the door? Something to do with a fridge freezer and she might not be coming this afternoon? She says she wants to come because she hasn’t washed it since I washed it four weeks ago… and she just says to me quietly… (whispers)… It feels a bit mucky! (chuckles)
