Greg Girard – Actual Colors May Vary {ACMV}

Greg Girard & Ian Lambot | City of Darkness: Kowloon Walled City revisited

Greg Girard and Ian Lambot started a Kickstarter campaign to publish a new extended edition of their in 1993 released and sold-out book „City of Darkness: Kowloon Walled City“ including new photographs and many previously unpublished drawings and documents. The city was the most densely populated place on earth before its demolition in 1992. Although already fully financed you can still support the project until April 18th and receive original prints and signed books as a thank-you. The book will be published in summer 2014.
