The city Fred Herzog documented over more than half a century has
vanished-an early kind of urban flaneur, Herzog wandered the
streets of Vancouver, creating an archive that encapsulates the
essence of a bygone era. Considered today as one of the most
important street photographers of the 20th century, he changed the
international conversation about early color photography. However,
it was only in the late 1950s that he decided to primarily shoot
with Kodachrome color slides. Fred Herzog: Black and White is the
first acknowledgement of a lesser-known facet of the photographers'
work. Complementing the seminal Modern Color, it encompasses almost
graphical urban scenes of shadow and light, alongside travel
photographs and depictions of rural life. Evoking notions of
melancholy, this book reveals that Herzog's appeal lies in his
ability to seize a condensation of a psychological state.
