Stephen Shore (signed) - Uncommon Places - Aperture 2015

Originally published in 1982, Stephen Shore’s legendary Uncommon Places has influenced more than a generation of photographers. For this reissue, the artist has added nearly 20 rediscovered images and a statement explaining what it means to expand a classic series. Like Robert Frank and Walker Evans before him, Shore discovered a hitherto unarticulated vision of America via highway and camera. Approaching his subjects with cool objectivity, Shore retains precise systems of gestures in composition and light through which a hotel bedroom or a building on a side street assumes both an archetypal aura and an ambiguously personal importance.
