Never-before-seen black-and-white nightclub photographs enliven the typical Eggleston oeuvre

This monograph on American photographer William Eggleston highlights his photos taken on a large-format 5 x 7 camera in the early 1970s. It features both color and black-and-white photographs, the latter of which are a never-before-seen series of portraits taken inside the nightclubs that Eggleston frequented. Museum director and contemporary art curator Walter Hopps--an early champion for Eggleston--characterized these images as offhand and spontaneous but insistently stark; their brutality is heightened by the absence of color. The volume also features Eggleston in conversation with filmmaker Michael Almereyda, who directed a documentary on the artist in 2005.
