The Ongoing Moment

The Ongoing Moment

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, AndrÃ© KertÃ©sz, Edward Weston, Dorothea Lange, Diane Arbus, and William Eggleston have photographed the same thingsâ€”barber shops, benches, hands, roads, signsâ€“award-winning writer Geoff Dyer seeks to identify their signature styles. In doing so, he constructs a narrative in which these photographersâ€“many of whom never metâ€“constantly encounter one another. The result is a kaleidoscopic work of extraordinary originality and insight.
