A former assistant to Richard Avedon, she has published her work to wide acclaim over the past twenty-five years. As seen in this extraordinary book, Wilson's subjects range from legendary West Texas cattle ranches to impoverished Plains Indian reservations to lavish border-town cotillions. Also featured are compelling portraits of artists who are associated with the region, including Donald Judd, Ed Ruscha, and Sam Shepard. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The unforgettable images in \u003ci\u003eThat Day\u003c\/i\u003e, most of which are previously unpublished, tell sharply drawn stories of the people and places that have shaped, and continue to shape, the nation's most dynamic and unyielding land. Text from Wilson's journals accompanies the photographs, recalling her personal experiences behind the camera at the moment when a particular image was captured. With her incisive eye, Wilson casts a fresh light on the West--a topic of enduring fascination. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with the Clements Center for Southwest Studies at Southern Methodist University \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmon Carter Museum of American Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (09\/05\/15-02\/14\/16)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Wilson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300215398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300215397\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.20h x 10.20w x 1.10d","brand":"Laura Wilson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44076006834431,"sku":"9780300215397","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b0b06f70-52a5-4562-83ac-533cb36c4760.jpg?v=1685462653","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/that-day-laura-wilson-9780300215397","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
