Summary

• Description from the Elvehjem bulletin/annual report 1987–88:
• "Because of his mastery of the nuance of black and white photography, Edward Weston's color work is all too often overlooked. This [exhibition] from the Center for Contemporary Photography was comprised of prints made from the transparencies Weston made in the late [1940s] with color materials Kodak had developed at that time. The images in the exhibition included images of many of the same subjects which Weston had turned to in his black and white work and showed Weston's use of color as a means of separating forms."
