Like the series’ first instalment, Miscellanea II covers 1988-97, albeit this time in colour and with a stronger focus on when Emigholz worked on Photography and Beyond‘s first two monographs, Sullivan’s Banks and Maillart’s Bridges. Both works are also book-ended by images shot on the same day: 11 October 1988, at Cabo de Creus. Part six of Emigholz’s architectural studies that form the film collection Photography and Beyond.
