William Eggleston: Democratic Camera, Photographs and Video, 1961–2008 - Signed

Second Printing, 2008. 320 pages. 

Book measures 10 x 11.5 inches. Signed by Eggleston on the title page. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. Binding is tight. A clean bright copy. Published on occasion of the large exhibition at The Whitney Museum. Edited by Elisabeth Sussman and Thomas Weski, with additional essays by Doona de Salvo, Tina Kukielski, and Stanley Booth. Drawing together Eggleston’s famous and lesser-known works, this lavishly illustrated catalogue is the first to examine both his photography and videos. Of particular relevance are his black-and-white 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.
