Summary:
"Marking the first museum exhibition devoted solely to the photographs of Ellsworth Kelly, this beautifully designed volume features each photograph in the Santa Barbara Museum of Art's illuminating presentation of this lesser-known aspect of Kelly's art. From the late 1940s on, Kelly created an era-defining body of abstract art based on many kinds of visual phenomena he perceived around him. Largely made for himself, Kelly's photographs record these discoveries in tightly-composed images of nature and architecture that often reverberate with striking sunlight and shadow." -- Provided by publisher.
