Here is a great little book being released just in time for Halloween. Be sure to check it out….
On October 31, one of Aperture’s most recent photo books, “The Open Road”, will be released. The 336 page book visually discusses the act of the American road trip. The book is comprised of text by David Campany and photographic works by Robert Frank, Garry Winogrand, Joel Sternfeld, William Eggleston, and Alec Soth that collectively cover over half a century of photographic practice. As explained on Aperture’s site, “The Open Road is the first book to explore the photographic road trip as a genre. It opens with a comprehensive introduction, which traces the rise of road culture in America and considers photographers on the move across the country and across the century, from the early 1900s to present day. Each chapter explores one body of work in depth through informative texts and a portfolio of images”.
