WILLIAM EGGLESTON. PORTRAITS

Résumé :


The American photographer William Eggleston is best known for capturing everyday suburban life in his home town of Memphis, Tennessee, and for his pioneering use of colour. This book, which accompanies the first exhibition entirely devoted to Eggleston's portraiture, features a variety of images of the people he has encountered during his long career. Some of the images are familiar, many of them previously unseen, all of them distinctively Eggleston : vivid, poetic, mysterious.
This book also includes a new interview with the photographer, which provides a fresh perspective on one of the medium's most influential practitioners.
