Produktbeschreibung
Pulled from William Eggleston's celebrated Outlands and Chromes series, this momentous publication catalogues the last major group of Eggleston's photographs to ever be produced using the dye transfer method, the format in which he originally presented them. Eggleston's vividly saturated photographs transform the ordinary into distinctive, poetic images that eschew fixed meaning. One of the foremost practitioners in the medium's history, Eggleston was widely considered the father of color photography. His love for the medium and his devotion to quality is exemplified in his use of dye-transfer printing, a technique that enhanced the vibrancy and depth of his compositions. Developed by Kodak in the 1940s, dye-transfer prints were a favorite of Eggleston as the detailed and difficult process of printing yielded a stunning and colorful result.

Autorenporträt
Over the course of nearly six decades, William Eggleston has established a singular pictorial style that deftly combines vernacular subject matter with an innate and sophisticated understanding of color, form, and composition. His photographs transform the ordinary into distinctive, poetic images that eschew fixed meaning. His 1976 solo exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, curated by John Szarkowski, marked one of the first presentations of color photography at the museum. Although initially criticized for its unfamiliar approach, the show and its accompanying catalogue, William Eggleston's Guide, heralded an important moment in the medium’s acceptance within the art-historical canon, and it solidified the artist’s position as one of its foremost practitioners to date. Eggleston’s work continues to exert an influence on contemporary visual culture at large.
