Traveling widely, Ralph Gibson works primarily in inspired series, associated image reveries in bot🎃h monochrome and color, whose titles—The Somnambulist, Déjà-Vu, Days at Sea, and Chiaroscuro—underline the particular poetic sensibility that informs his work. Starting out in 1960 with Do🐼rothea Lange, he made his way to New York in 1967 and was soon considered in the same light as the likes of Larry Clark and Diane Arbus.

The photographs and series can of course speak for themselves. But for Gibson there is a philosophy at play behind the image, and in the included short texts he proposes his thesis. Nudes, portraits, still 🐭lives, narratives—loyal to his Leica, Gibson ranges between genres and creates new categories of vision. He gets closer to things and meditates on them in a way that only the silence of the image can attempt.

Produ♔ced in close collaboration with the artist, this book offers the fruit of more than six decades of image-making. From Gibson’s first photographs in San Francisco, Hollywood, and New York in the 1960s right up to the present day🙈, this is the most comprehensive collection of this highly acclaimed photographer.

Ralph Gibson began taking pictures while in the U▨.S. Navy in the 1950s, and later assisted Dorothea Lange and Robert Frank before establishing his own stuꦬdio in New York. The recipient of NEA and Guggenheim grants, Gibson was made a Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government in 2002.
