  • Memphis, Eggleston, About 1965
    J. Paul Getty Museum Education Department Exploring Photographs Information and Questions for Teaching Memphis, William Eggleston Memphis William Eggleston American, Memphis, Tennessee, about 1965–1970 Gelatin silver print 9 1/2 x 6 1/4 in. 2002.38.8 William Eggleston made this image from a two-person table in a Memphis diner; the collection of shakers and condiment jars on the tabletop in front of him are blurred by the camera's close proximity. Eggleston focused on an older woman having coffee at the next table, who returns his gaze. A bright stripe on the wall behind her and a nearby neon clock sign also vie for the camera's attention. The sign's message, "Payroll checks cashed free," addresses the diner's working-class patrons—a friendly message in an alienating interior. Diners are ubiquitous places, fixtures of American road culture where inexpensive food can be had quickly. The diner is also an iconic subject of twentieth-century American art; it featured in Edward Hopper's paintings of the 1930s and Robert Frank's photographs in The Americans, published in the 1950s. Eggleston's image extends their theme of lone city-dwellers sitting forlornly in harshly lit © Eggleston Artistic Trust eating establishments, looking as if they are trapped there. About the Artist William Eggleston (American, b. 1939) William Eggleston assumes a neutral gaze and creates his art from commonplace subjects: a farmer's muddy Ford truck, a red ceiling in a friend's house, the contents of his own refrigerator. In his work, Eggleston photographs "democratically"—literally photographing the world around him.

  • WILLIAM EGGLESTON: at Zenith
    G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y January 2, 2014 PRESS RELEASE GAGOSIAN GALLERY 456 NORTH CAMDEN DRIVE T. 310.271.9400 BEVERLY HILLS CA 90210 F. 310.271.9420 HOURS: Tue–Sat 10:00am–6:00pm WILLIAM EGGLESTON: At Zenith Saturday, January 11–Thursday, February 20, 2014 Opening reception: Saturday, January 11th, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm I was interested in photographic works that were very much about photography, but certainly—hopefully— were grounded in painting. —William Eggleston Gagosian Beverly Hills is pleased to present “William Eggleston: At Zenith.” A Memphis native, Eggleston developed his distinct oeuvre from the immediate world around him, incorporating all shades of life into his vivid photographs, and pioneering an approach that derives its power from a refined form of spontaneous observation. A modern-day flâneur, he captures compelling fragments, events, and personalities of the ordinary world. Eggleston is largely credited with legitimizing color photography as a fine art form. More than a century after the advent of color film, and a decade after popular media fused with contemporary art, his first museum exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York in 1976 was also the first time that color photography had been considered in this context. Thirty-eight years after this historic moment, Eggleston continues his innovations in photography. In recent years, advances in digital processes allow him to print images on a much larger scale, at times even surpassing the quality of color saturation associated with dye-transfer, the vibrant and exquisite printing process which is his hallmark.

  • Color Photographs by William Eggleston
    NO. 40 FOR RELEASE: May 25, 1976 The Museum of Modern Art Press Preview: May 24, 1976 11 west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart 11 am - 4 pm COLOR PHOTOGRAPHS BY WILLIAM EGGLESTON AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART Photographs by William Eggleston, one of the most accomplished photographers now working in color, will be on view at The Museum of Modern Art from May 25 through August 1. The exhibition of approximately 75 prints has been selected and installed by John Szarkowski, Director of the Department of Photography, who is also the author of a fully illustrated monograph, William Eggleston's Guide,* the Museum's first publication on color photography. The exhibition and publication have been made possible by grants from Vivitar Inc. and the National Endowment for the Arts. Unlike most of their predecessors, whose color work has been either formless or too pretty, a new generation of young photographers has begun to use color in a confident spirit of freedom and naturalness. In their work the role of color is more than simply descriptive or decorative, and assumes a central place in the de­ finition of the picture's content. These photographers work not as if color were a separate problem to be resolved in isolation, "but rather as though the world it­ self existed in color, as though the blue and the sky were one thing," Szarkowski writes. For Eggleston, as for others in the new generation of color photographers, color is "existential and descriptive; these pictures are not photographs of color, any more than they are photographs of shapes, textures, objects, symbols, or events, but rather photographs of experience, as it has been ordered and clarified within the structures imposed by the camera." Eggleston, who lives in Memphis, Tennessee, finds his private, even insular subject matter in the commonplace realities of that city and its environs.

Inside out, I said thinking of what I’ve tried to hide. I follow him now, watch him take pictures.

(47.15 x 59.37 cm), Milwaukee Art Museum, Purchase, with funds from Christine A. Symchych, M2010.44 © Joel Meyerowitz / Courtesy Edwynn Houk Gallery, New York, Image credit: John R. Glembin Color Rush exposes color in American photography Milwaukee, Wis. – Color in photography has had a checkered history. Although photographs in color had been desired since the medium’s invention in the nineteenth century, commercially viable color photographic processes were not available until the early twentieth century. By that time, monochromatic photography had become a common part of everyday life, so much so that black-and-white images seemed “real” despite their chromatic deficiencies. As color photographic technologies developed, discussions about the realism of black and white versus color emerged. Color Rush: 75 Years of Color Photography in America captures the medium’s evolution throughout the first seven decades of the twentieth century, exploring the historical developments that led to color photography becoming the norm in popular culture and fine art. With framed photographs, as well as publications, slide shows, and film clips, this exhibition and catalogue present the story of color photography in America as it has never been told before. Color Rush runs February 22 through May 19, 2013 at the Milwaukee Art Museum. The exhibition charts—from magazine pages to gallery walls, from advertisements to photojournalism—the interconnected history of color photography in the United States from 1907 to 1981 through nearly 200 objects.
