It’s not all natives that get caught in Cummins’ lens, as a gallery recently published in the Guardian makes clear: there’s a rare shot of Madonna at the Hacienda, which proves priceless, as is a portrait of Factory major domo Tony Wilson standing between the club’s signature striped columns. But Cummins’ gaze is truly about capturing the vibe of Manchester above all else. Despite the concentration on pics of music notables, Manchester’s history as a soccer/football stronghold comes through clearly in certain images: one features Liam and Noel of Oasis playing footie “like girls,” while another is the famed playful shot of the Stone Roses, given the Jackson Pollock action painting treatment but in Manchester City team colors. That explosion of yellow and blue stands out: most of Cummins’ shots are in vividly graphic black and white, which is how many think of Manchester – a moody cocktail, equal parts real funk and European industrial gloom, that continues to provide a kick.
