Abstract
The recognition and acceptance of color photography grew significantly with the Museum of Modern Art’s 1976 exhibition of work by William Eggleston. The notion that photography was a black-and-white medium was irreversibly challenged by that event. Eggleston’s work created the context for this issue of Aperture, which enabled us to include work of diverse intentions, all of which emphatically stretched our awareness of color. The sequence that emerged corresponded with a sensibility that is particular and vital to our time.
