Mark was formerly the Head of Photography at Manchester College of Art and a photographer of great virtuosity and technical skill. Born in Urmston, Mark studied at the Manchester Polytechnic in the 1970\u2019s which is now Manchester Metropolitan University. Mark\u2019s photographic practice was varied, including social documentary photography, street photography, art photography and portrait photography.<\/p>\n<p>The collection is relatively small but contains varied photo stories including gems such as the last few months of the dog racing track at Manchester&#8217;s White City, holiday-making at the beach at Blackpool, Manchester festivals, art photos of found objects and portraits of Manchester luminaries. These works enhance our holdings of photographic material that relates to the North West.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1714 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-300x243.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-768x623.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-1024x831.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-150x122.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-250x203.jpg 250w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-350x284.jpg 350w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-1080x876.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it.jpg 1490w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1719\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1719\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1719\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-768x601.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-1024x801.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-150x117.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-250x196.jpg 250w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-350x274.jpg 350w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-1080x845.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it.jpg 1524w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1719\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Images taken in Manchester City Centre, c1986. \u00a9Estate of Mark Warner<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Mark was an integral part of the Manchester music scene from the late 1970s-2000s. He was a friend of Manchester icon Tony Wilson of Factory Records fame and a visual chronicler of local bands. One particularly interesting set of prints is of the \u2018Cities in the Park\u2019 festival that took place in Heaton Park on the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> and 4<sup>th<\/sup> of August in 1991. Mark\u2019s photographs cover Sunday 4<sup>th<\/sup> of August, known as the \u2018Factory day\u2019 as it was showcasing mainly Factory label bands. The line-up included the Happy Mondays and The Durutti Column. The Durutti Column were headed by Manchester musician Vini Reilly and were one of the first acts signed to Factory by Tony Wilson. Mark worked with Vini on a number of occasions and one of Mark\u2019s striking portraits of Vini graced the cover of his eponymous 1989 album <em>Vini Reilly<\/em> (Factory FACT 244).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_1717\" style=\"width: 237px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1717\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1717\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-227x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"227\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-768x1016.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-774x1024.jpg 774w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-150x198.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-250x331.jpg 250w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-350x463.jpg 350w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-1080x1429.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it.jpg 1134w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 227px) 100vw, 227px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1717\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shaun Ryder, Cities in the Park festival, 1991.\u00a0\u00a9Estate of Mark Warner\u00a0<\/p><\/div><div id=\"attachment_1716\" style=\"width: 248px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1716\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1716\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-238x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"238\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-768x967.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-813x1024.jpg 813w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-150x189.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-250x315.jpg 250w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-350x441.jpg 350w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-1080x1360.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it.jpg 1186w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1716\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vini Reilly, c1989. \u00a9Estate of Mark Warner<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the photographic works we have a number of photo-books that indicate the influences on Mark\u2019s own photographic practice, two of his cameras and objects that were used in his art photography.

Mark was formerly the Head of Photography at Manchester College of Art and a photographer of great virtuosity and technical skill. Born in Urmston, Mark studied at the Manchester Polytechnic in the 1970\u2019s which is now Manchester Metropolitan University. Mark\u2019s photographic practice was varied, including social documentary photography, street photography, art photography and portrait photography.<\/p><p>The collection is relatively small but contains varied photo stories including gems such as the last few months of the dog racing track at Manchester's White City, holiday-making at the beach at Blackpool, Manchester festivals, art photos of found objects and portraits of Manchester luminaries. These works enhance our holdings of photographic material that relates to the North West.<\/p><p><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-1704\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030046-is-it-300x243.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"306\" height=\"248\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-1703\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030052-is-it-300x235.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"306\" height=\"240\" \/><\/p><p>Images taken in Manchester City Centre, c1986. \u00a9Estate of Mark Warner<\/p><p>Mark was an integral part of the Manchester music scene from the late 1970s-2000s. He was a friend of Manchester icon Tony Wilson of Factory Records fame and a visual chronicler of local bands. One particularly interesting set of prints is of the \u2018Cities in the Park\u2019 festival that took place in Heaton Park on the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> and 4<sup>th<\/sup> of August in 1991. Mark\u2019s photographs cover Sunday 4<sup>th<\/sup> of August, known as the \u2018Factory day\u2019 as it was showcasing mainly Factory label bands. The line-up included the Happy Mondays and The Durutti Column. The Durutti Column were headed by Manchester musician Vini Reilly and were one of the first acts signed to Factory by Tony Wilson. Mark worked with Vini on a number of occasions and one of Mark\u2019s striking portraits of Vini graced the cover of his eponymous 1989 album <em>Vini Reilly<\/em> (Factory FACT 244).\u00a0<\/p>[caption id=\"attachment_1707\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"227\"]<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-1707\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030050-is-it-227x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"227\" height=\"300\" \/> Shaun Ryder, Cities in the park festival, 1991. \u00a9Estate of Mark Warner[\/caption][caption id=\"attachment_1706\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"238\"]<img class=\"size-medium wp-image-1706\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/jrri-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2019\/04\/JRL19030048-is-it-238x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"238\" height=\"300\" \/> Vini Reilly, c1989. \u00a9Estate of Mark Warner[\/caption]<p>In addition to the photographic works we have a number of photo-books that indicate the influences on Mark\u2019s own photographic practice, two of his cameras and objects that were used in his art photography.
