The Wick Culture - Early Works by Stephen Shore

Object Early Work by Stephen Shore

£55

Stephen Shore’s remarkable, groundbreaking career in photography began aged 6, with a gift. The photographer’s lifelong passion for photography stemmed from his first Kodak Darkroom kit, and has evolved through decades of devoted practice photographing his surroundings, American vernacular scenes, everyday life and culture that often surprise with colour and details. This new book, published by MACK books and available to pre-order ahead of its 1st September release date, reveals some of Shore’s earliest ever pictures, taken as a teen in New York in the 1960s.
