Featuring more than sixty of his pioneering photographs, this pocket-sized book in the Photofile series offers an ideal entry point to William Eggleston's work.
William Eggleston (b. 1939, USA) is renowned for combining everyday observation with an intuitive sense of colour and composition. A tricycle seen from a child's eye level, a red ceiling, a quiet roadside, an abandoned meal: his images suggest stories without ever fully telling them, inviting viewers into a world suspended between the familiar and the uncanny. Each photograph captures a specific time and place, while everything beyond the frame remains open, unresolved, restlessly imagined by the viewer.
A concise essay by Leanne Sacramone explores the artist's life, influences and innovations, while the images reveal the many ways his photographs transform the ordinary into something strange, evocative and unforgettable.
The Photofile series
Photofile brings together the best work of the world's greatest photographers in an attractive, pocket-sized format. Each book contains some sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography. The series was awarded the first annual prize for distinguished photographic books by the International Center of Photography, New York.
