2013年，在中國廣州和英國伯明翰，兩座城市的新圖書館先后對外開放，廣州圖書館與伯明翰中心圖書館也由此締結了合作關系。Andrew Lacon和Stuart Whipps，兩位來自英國的攝影藝術家，對這兩座圖書館之間的故事產(chǎn)生了興趣，并來到了廣州。在兩位藝術家到達廣州之前，他們就已在英國的工作室創(chuàng)作了一系列的黑白照片，這些照片利用伯明翰中心圖書館的建筑材料——混凝土和膠合板，按比例呈現(xiàn)了廣州圖書館外墻磚塊的形態(tài)。
在廣州期間，Lacon和Whipps還將持續(xù)創(chuàng)作并展出新的攝影作品。新作品將不斷地融入現(xiàn)有的作品并共同展出。它們將以拼貼畫的形式，展現(xiàn)兩位藝術家在廣州度過的時光和他們的工作狀態(tài)。

A Conversation with Birmingham at the Library
Hosted by the Guangzhou Library and the Library of Birmingham
In Partnership with the British Council and Grain Photography
Andrew Lacon and Stuart Whipps are interested in the relationship between the new libraries of Guangzhou, China and Birmingham, UK. Both cities have recently built iconic new libraries and have an official memorandum of understanding. Before their arrival in Guangzhou, Lacon and Whipps made a series of black and white photographs in their studio in the UK. These photographs depict bricks that conform to the ratio of the block work of the Guangzhou library exterior and use the materials, concrete and plywood, utilized in the construction of Birmingham Central Library. The photographs are an attempt to understand the structure and form of Guangzhou library from afar.
During their time in Guangzhou they will be making and exhibiting new work in the library. These works will be introduced to the existing works on display within the space, creating an almost collage of their time and working process whilst in Guangzhou.
