Description

The second volume of Edward Weston’s intimate journals, “California” chronicles the photographer’s most mature and celebrated period. After returning from Mexico, Weston settled in Carmel, where he refined his “straight photography” aesthetic. These entries reveal his relentless self-critique and the “aha” moments behind his iconic studies of Point Lobos and various organic forms. The text is a vivid record of an artist determined to see beyond conventional expectations, stripping subjects of their “fate of fame” to reveal the intent residing in natural form.
