audiobook The Ongoing Moment by Geoff Dyer in Arts-Photography

Description

Great photographs change the way we see the world; The Ongoing Moment changes the way we look at both.Focusing on the ways in which canonical figures like Alfred Stieglitz; Paul Strand; Walker Evans; Andreacute; Kerteacute;sz; Edward Weston; Dorothea Lange; Diane Arbus; and William Eggleston have photographed the same thingsmdash;barber shops; benches; hands; roads; signsmdash;award-winning writer Geoff Dyer seeks to identify their signature styles. In doing so; he constructs a narrative in which these photographersmdash;many of whom never metmdash;constantly encounter one another. The result is a kaleidoscopic work of extraordinary originality and insight.
