William Eggleston’s vision is deceptively casual and sometimes brutally direct. The results are often unsettling. Whether he is making portraits, landscapes, interiors, still-life’s or street scenes, he works with unflinching, unsentimental candor. By marrying this sensibility with sophisticated color, Eggleston continuously rediscovers the mundane world.

By now, William Eggleston's once seditiously catholic treatment of subject matter in photography has been consecrated in the liturgy of contemporary art. A generation of photographers inspired by Eggleston's innovations...

Unseen images, taken by the artist in the 1990s along with a selection of iconic images from the 1970s, were shown in conjunction with the release of his book, 2 ¼, by Twin Palms Publishers. William Eggleston, the master of color photography, has long held international acclaim for his innovative vision of the ordinary, real world. Through his work, we are introduced into "...a way of seeing in which the ordinary and banal become extraordinary and engrossing."
