{"product_id":"william-eggleston-democratic-camera-photographs-and-video-19612008","title":"William Eggleston: Democratic Camera, Photographs and Video, 19612008","description":"\u003cp\u003eElviss Graceland, a freezer stuffed with food, a Gulf gasoline sign standing in a deserted rural landscapethese are only a few of the iconic images captured by the democratic camera of photographer William Eggleston. Not only has he drawn upon images so telling of American culture, he has produced them with an intensity and balance of color that have helped elevate the entire field of color photography to a fine art, especially since his 1976 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art.Drawing together Egglestons famous and lesserknown works, this lavishly illustrated catalogue is the first to examine both his photography and videos. Of particular relevance are his blackandwhite images from the late 1950s and 1960s, which helped shape his color photography, as well as the relationship between his provocative video recordings of 1970s Memphis nightlife and his later work. Included are reproductions of newly restored prints, executed specifically for the exhibition.Filled with new and challenging contributions to scholarship and accompanying the first major U.S. survey of his work, this catalogue will prove the standard reference for Egglestons photographs for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Whitney Museum of American Art","offers":[{"title":"Sussman, Elisabeth \/ hardcover","offer_id":47840525353205,"sku":"SONG0300126212","price":108.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/5804\/8501\/files\/911gYu4TmSL.jpg?v=1773750527","url":"https:\/\/ergodebooks.com\/products\/william-eggleston-democratic-camera-photographs-and-video-19612008","provider":"Ergodebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
