Stephen Shore




Stephen Shore is an American photographer known for his images of banal scenes and objects in the United states and for his original colouring. In 1970s he set off on a series of road trips around United stated producing photographs which has crucial influence by Andreas Gursky and Thomas Struth.

1969-79 photographs had serial manner of Avenues in America to get snaps of Americans walking up the avenue.  The images could only be understood if seen in series that would reveal limitations. Uncommon Places, the exhibition features a selection from American Surfaces, snapshots photographed on the road to Amerillo, Texas between 1972-1973 which rarely exhibited conceptual projects.
