In&the&late&fiGies,&armed&with&his&Leica,&William&Eggleston&started&photographing&his&surroundings&in&black&and&white.&He&knew&he&could&take&“perfect&fake&

CarAerLBressons”&but&quickly&realized&he&needed&to&turn&toward&the&contemporary.&As&he&told&his&friend&Stanley&Booth&in&1999:&“What&was&new&back&then&

was&shopping&centers,&and&I&took&pictures&of& them”.&Thus&appeared&a&sort&of&typology&of& the&elements&of& the&“novel”&the&arAst&was&beginning&to&construct:&

the&bars,&the&gas&staAons,&the&cars,&the&ghostly&figures&adriG&in&space,&but&also&the&ceilings,&the&everyday&objects,&the&drabness&and&the&derelicAon.&CarAerL

Bresson’s& influence&may& be& detected&in& the& “postures& of& the& bodies,”& in& the& diagonal&lines& and& sophisAcated&composiAons,& but&the& closeLups& of& home&

appliances&had&already&begun&to&appear&LLsinks,&ovens,&freezers,&and&even&foodLLvernacular&points&of&view&that&had&been&neglected&unAl&then.

The& black&and&white&work& that&he& pursued&for&a&Ame& alongside& his& color&images& is& extremely&original&and&embodies& the& audacity&with&which&the&

pioneering& photographer& dared& to& view& the& mundane& objects& that& hold& no& interest& for&most& people:& this& is& what& has& famously& been& called& the&

“democraAc&camera.”

“When&I&switched&from&black&and&white&to&color,&the&only&thing&that&changed&was&the&film,”&said&the&photographer&in&1996.&“The&world&is&in&color.&

And&there’s&nothing&we&can&do&about&that.”&Eggleston,&who&spent&nights& in&a&photography& lab&where&a&friend&worked,&watching&the&automaAc&

processing&of&amateur&color&photographs,&says&he& learned&a&great&deal&from&there.&Fascinated&by&what&he&saw,&he&felt&that&with&good&equipment&

and&the&experience& he&had&already&gained,&he&would&be& able& to&produce& excellent&work& in&color.& Thus& was&born&a&sort&of& tenacious&faith& in&his&

future&experiments.
