Description: Sale! Super RARE!!! SIGNED!!!! Exclusive! Beautiful NewBook!!!! William Eggleston: The Outlands: Selected Works, SIGNED! By William Eggleston Printed in Italy!!! English Paperback 224 pages Size 10.75 x 0.48 x 14.75 inches Brand NEW! A selection of nearly one hundred previously unseen images from the 1960s and 1970s by the pioneer of color photography, William Eggleston. The Outlands, a series of photographs taken by Eggleston between 1969 and 1974, establishes the groundbreaking visual themes and lexicon that the artist would continue to develop for decades to come. The work offers a journey through the mythic and evolving American South, seen through the artistâs lens: vibrant colors and a profound sense of nostalgia echo throughout Egglestonâs breathtaking oeuvre. His motifs of signage, cars, and roadside scenes create an iconography of American vistas that inspired a generation of photographers. With its in-depth selection of unforgettable imagesâa wood-paneled station wagon, doors flung open, parked in an expansive rural setting; the artistâs grandmother in the moody interior of their familyâs Sumner, Mississippi homeâThe Outlands is emblematic of Egglestonâs dynamic, experimental practice. The breadth of work reenergizes his iconic landscapes and forms a new perspective of the American South in transition. Accompanying the ninety brilliant Kodachrome images and details, a literary, fictional text by the critically acclaimed author Rachel Kushner imagines a story of hitchhikers trekking through the Deep South. New scholarship by Robert Slifkin reframes the art-historical significance of Egglestonâs oeuvre, proposing affinities with work by Marcel Duchamp, Dan Graham, Jasper Johns, and Robert Smithson. A foreword by William Eggleston III offers important insights into the process of selecting and sequencing this series of images. Review âThe Outlands isnât merely about the process of looking, but about practising how to see.â â ArtReview About the Author 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 mediumâs acceptance within the art-historical canon, and it solidified the artistâs position as one of its foremost practitioners to date. Egglestonâs work continues to exert an influence on contemporary visual culture at large. Rachel Kushner is the author of the novels The Mars Room, The Flamethrowers, and Telex from Cuba, as well as a book of short stories, The Strange Case of Rachel K.

Vursell Memorial Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Her books have been translated into twenty-six languages. Her fiction has appeared in The New Yorker, The Paris Review, and Harperâs Magazine, and her essays in Artforum, Bookforum, and The New York Times Magazine. She lives in Los Angeles.
