the art institute is exhibiting william eggleston photographs through May 2010 - the democratic camera. happy thursday all.
"Naturally we see the work more clearly now. We know that it was not cheap. The dye transfer printing Mr. Eggleston used, adapted from advertising, was the most expensive color process then available. It produced hues of almost hallucinatory intensity, from a custard-yellow sunset glow slanting across a wall to high-noon whiteness bleaching a landscape to pink lamplight suffusing a room. " NYT Nov 6 2008
