An early advocate of colour photography, Joel Meyerowitz has
impacted and influenced generations of artists. For fifty-eight
years, the master photographer has documented the US’s
ever-changing social landscape. For a while, during the late 1960s,
Meyerowitz carried two cameras: one loaded with monochrome stock,
the other with colour. Just how, when and why US fine-art
photographers switched from black-and-white image-making, which was
prized within the gallery system, to colour photography, once seen
as the preserve of the holiday snapper, has been the cause of much
debate. In this book, Meyerowitz tells the story of his early days
as a photographer when he was told that serious photographers took
black & white pictures. 'But why?' he asked, 'when the world is
in colour?' He proceed to buy a colour camera and various rolls of
films and to read manuals and experiment with colour techniques: a
passion he continued to pursue all his life...
