Summary:

"The Cities on the Edge programme is a cultural partnership of six European port cities - Liverpool, Marseilles, Naples, Bremen, Gdansk and Istanbul - initiated by Liverpool as part of its European Capital of Culture celebrations to promote intercultural dialogue. As part of this programme, a photographer from each city was invited to visit Liverpool and explore the relationship - visual, cultural, social, political - between their home cities and the host city. The result was a series of images that reflect in different ways the contrast and similarities that struck particular photographers."--Jacket
