保罗•格雷厄姆的**系列作品《超越关怀》最初于1985年自费出版，这些照片是在英国各地的社会保障和失业办公室的等候室和走廊里拍摄的，记录了一个负担过重的系统的漫长等待、排队和恶劣条件，形成了一系列有感染力的照片，表现了人们所经历的艰难困苦。由于得不到官方许可，格雷厄姆很谨慎地拍摄这些照片，他通常没有看镜头，因而造成了空间上的迷失，强调了弱势公民的无助的痛苦。这部作品一经发布就震惊了许多人——马格南的**摄影师对其在经典纪录片题材中使用色彩感到愤怒，而其他人则对其跨越行动主义世界和艺术的世界的行为表示赞许。格雷厄姆开创了一种新的摄影形式，混合了社会纪实、"新色彩 "和报告文学的元素，创造出大量引人注目的作品，一直延续到今天。自1984年拍摄这些作品以来，几十年过去了，但这些图片不仅在摄影方面越来越重要，而且作为英国80年代中期失业危机的独特历史记录，也越来越重要。

Originally self-

published in 1985, Paul Graham's renowned series, 'Beyond Caring', was made in the waiting rooms and corridors of the Social Security and Unemployment offices around the UK, documenting the long waits, queues and poor conditions of an overburdened system, to produce a powerful series of photographs conveying the hardship people experienced. Denied official permission to make the work, Graham's photographs were taken discreetly, usually without looking through the camera, resulting in a spatial disorientation that emphasised the unmoored distress of vulnerable citizens. The work shocked many on its release - leading Magnum photographers were outraged by its use of colour in a classic documentary topic, while others celebrated how it straddled the world of activism and art. Graham forged a fresh form of engaged photography, mixing elements of social documentary, 'new colour' and reportage to create a striking body of work that endures to this day. Many decades have passed since their making in 1984, but these images have grown not only in photographic importance, but also as a unique historic record of the mid-1980s unemployment crisis in the UK.
