The subject of an exhibition at the MoMA at this very moment, and of a book published by Aperture, Stephen Shore is an emblematic American photographer. Stephen Shore: Selected Works, 1973–1981 » was curated, amongst other great photographers and directors, by the legendary Wes Anderson. Each of the contributors gets a chapter in the book, to shine a different light on Shore’s work. A beautiful vision of this retro yet modern photography work, that still inspires America’s latest generation of photographers.
