Surveying the Weston family’s diverse pictorial output across generations
Designed in collaboration with the Weston family, The Weston Photographers spotlights more than 80 works by the four photographers, allocating half of the space to the lustrous black-and-white pictures of Edward Weston (1886–1958), the first to take up the practice. Almost all of Edward’s best-known masterpieces feature, from his textural portraits to his nudes, sand dunes, plain objects transformed into sculptures―and, of course, his iconic “vegetables,” the pepper, artichoke, cabbage and shell close-ups that cemented his place as a master of modernist photography.
Alongside Edward’s works, the book includes a selection of images by his son Brett (1911–93), who captured landscapes through geometric forms that evoke abstract art; his other son Cole (1919–2003), who distanced himself from his father through the use of color; and his granddaughter Cara (born 1957), who offers a contemporary twist on refined black-and-white photography.
