Joel Meyerowitz

Featured image, Joel Meyerowitz's "Red Interior, Provincetown" (1977), is reproduced from Color Rush: American Color Photography from Stieglitz to Sherman, published by Aperture. Spanning from "magazine pages to gallery walls, advertisements to photojournalism," Color Rush connects the history of color photography from 1907—when the Lumière brothers unveiled the autochrome process in Paris—to 1981—when curator Sally Eauclaire mounted the landmark ICP exhibition, The New Color Photography. Meyerowitz is quoted, "When I committed myself to color exclusively, it was a response to a greater need for description… When I say description, I don’t only mean mere fact and the cold accounting of things in the frame. I really mean the sensation I get from things—their surface and color—my memory of them in other conditions as well as their connotative qualities. Color plays itself out along a richer band of feelings—more wavelengths, more radiance, more sensation."
