{"product_id":"harry-gruyaert-francois-hebel-9780500544488","title":"Harry Gruyaert","description":"Born in Antwerp in 1941 and a member of Magnum Photos since 1982, Harry Gruyaert revolutionized creative and experimental uses of color in the 1970s and 1980s. Influenced by cinema and American photographers, his work defined new territory for color photography: an emotive, non-narrative, and boldly graphic way of perceiving the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In 1972, while living in London, Gruyaert created the striking series \u003cem\u003eTV Shots\u003c\/em\u003e by turning the dial on a television set at random and photographing the distorted images he saw there. A later series, \u003cem\u003eMade in Belgium\u003c\/em\u003e, portrays his ambivalent relationship with his homeland in a palette of saturated tones. In his most recent work, he embraces the possibilities of digital photography, taking further creative risks to capture light in new ways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Gruyaert's images are autonomous, often independent of any context or thematic logic. This volume, the first retrospective of his work, is a superb overview of his personal quest for freedom of expression and the liberation of the senses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fran輟is H饕el\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0500544484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500544488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 10.80w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2015 pg. 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/06\/2015 pg. 39","brand":"Fran輟is H饕el","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44046728134911,"sku":"9780500544488","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5268558b-da0d-4050-a98d-c9bc51150418.jpg?v=1684986135","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/harry-gruyaert-francois-hebel-9780500544488","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
