ISBN: 9780816646722 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Looking for Asian America shows real people engaged in the full range of human activity.

In search of contemporary Asian America, celebrated photographer Wing Young Huie--the only member of his family not born in China--traveled with his wife Tara through nearly forty states to...

William Eggleston: 2 1/4
ISBN: 9780944092705 / Angielski / Twarda / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Born and raised in Mississippi and Tennessee, William Eggleston began taking pictures during the 1960s after seeing Henri Cartier-Bresson's The Decisive Moment. In 1966 he changed from black and white to color film, perhaps to make the medium more his own and less that of his esteemed predecessors. John Sarkowski, when he was curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art, called Eggleston the "first color photographer, " and certainly the world in which we consider a color photograph as art has changed because of Eggleston.
From 1966 to 1971, Eggleston would occasionally use a two and... Born and raised in Mississippi and Tennessee, William Eggleston began taking pictures during the 1960s after seeing Henri Cartier-Bresson's The Decisi...
