Fred Herzog

blogEntryTopperIt is great to have Fred Herzog back in print again. This volume published by Hatje Cantz promises to be the most comprehensive publication on this important photographer to date. Fred Herzog is known for his unusual use of colour in the fifties and sixties, a time when art photography was almost exclusively associated with black and white imagery. The Canadian photographer, 86 years young this year, worked almost exclusively with Kodachrome slide film for over 50 years, and only in the past decade has technology allowed him to make archival pigment prints that match the exceptional colour and intensity of the Kodachrome slide.This book will bring together over 230 images, many never before reproduced.
