William Eggleston - the Last Dyes
William Eggleston
This momentous publication catalogues the last major group of William Eggleston's photographs to ever be produced using the dye-transfer method, the format in which he originally presented his work. Eggleston's vivid photographs transform the ordinary into distinctive, poetic images that eschew fixed meaning. One of the foremost practitioners in the medium's history, Eggleston is widely considered the father of colour photography. He pioneered the use of dye-transfer printing for art photography in the 1970s. The technically advanced process - first developed by Kodak in the 1940s - allowed him to achieve the richness of tonal depth and colour saturation that he had been searching for. In the early 1990s, Kodak stopped producing the dyes, paper, and film used in the process.
