Leisure
First edition of Leisure by Bill Owens. First impression. Medium format hardback in fine condition.
About
In his introduction to LEISURE, photographer Gregory Crewdson writes: "Owens photographs belong to an American aesthetic tradition of art that explores the intersection of everyday life and theatricality. Like the paintings of Edward Hopper, the photographs of Walker Evans and Diane Arbus, and the short stories of John Cheever and Raymond Carver, Owens photographs find unexpected beauty and mystery within the American vernacular. This collision between normality and strangeness transforms the American landscape into a place of wonder and anxiety."
