Graven Director Ross Hunter, sat down with Ben Kelly, the designer of Manchester’s most iconic club The Haçienda, and photographer and artist Eugene Schlumberger at the V&A Dundee in December 2021. They discuss – and give an exclusive preview of – the new book, Haçienda Landscapes, ahead of its release and The Haçienda’s 40th anniversary this year.
Part photobook, part visual history, Haçienda Landscapes is a collaboration between Ben Kelly and Eugene Schlumberger and reflects upon the club’s enduring design aesthetic via photography of the industrial landscapes of the North, the graphic language of the everyday, and items selected from Kelly’s own archives – much of which has never been published before.
