Iain Sinclair, chronicler of London, writer, documentarist, filmmaker, poet, flaneur, metropolitan prophet and keeper of lost cultures,
is in conversation with Martin Karlsson, who has created a project on the 100-metre hoarding that encloses the building works for the extension to Tate Modern.
London – An Imagery 2008–9 takes as its starting point Gustave Doré’s gothic etchings published in 1872. Karlsson updates this portrait of the city
and its inhabitants.
