In 1966 he changed from black-and-white to color film, perhaps to make the medium more his own and less that of his esteemed predecessor. John Sarkowski, when he was curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art, called Eggleston the ‘first color photographer,’ and the world in which we consider a color photograph as art has changed because of him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Twin Palms Publisher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47045110006055,"sku":"WE2","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/7342\/5959\/files\/William-Eggleston-2-14_2000x_8877890d-f05d-4177-a9bd-551417e25966.jpg?v=1698902650"},{"product_id":"william-eggleston-the-mystery-of-the-ordinary","title":"William Eggleston - The Mystery of the Ordinary","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMystery of the Ordinary\u003c\/i\u003e captures the full scope of Eggleston’s evolution and legacy: from the early black-and-white work of the late 1950s, in which we witness his discovery and exploration of themes and unconventional cropping’s, to some of his most iconic colour images.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\" William Eggeston photofraphed the railway bridge form the steps of the Theater des Westens on Kantstrasse in Brlin fig1 Bilka, a deparment store, peeks out from behind it with its latticed-diamond tilling.

The reception was divided and passionate. The book and show unabashedly forced the art world to deal with color photography, a medium scarcely taken seriously at the time, and with the vernacular content of a body of photographs that could have been but definitely weren't some average American's Instamatic pictures from the family album. These photographs heralded a new mastery of the use of color as an integral element of photographic composition.
