'Looking for Alfred' is a large-format 288-page book which documents the various elements, and stages, of Johan Grimonprez's project of the same name, which uses film, video and photography, as well as storyboards and other drawings by the artist, in an imaginative pursuit of the multi-faceted legacy of Alfred Hitchcock. The publication, lavishly illustrated throughout, features new essays by well-known writers and academics such as Tom McCarthy, Thomas Elsaesser and Patricia Allmer, and retraces the themes of the lookalike and the double that recur in Grimonprez's work, and are such a feature of Hitchcock's own oeuvre.
