Stephen Shore | In Conversation with James Willing

Rizzoli Bookstore is delighted to celebrate Stephen Shore new book in a conversation with James Willing. The Mental Image is the latest book by Stephen Shore, one of the most influential photographers, writers, and teachers working today. Here, Shore turns to the inner life of images: how photographs are imagined, sensed, and carried in the body. The sequel to his global bestseller The Nature of Photographs (2013), this richly illustrated volume brings together numerous anecdotes, influences, references, and teachings to show how visualisation, attention, and embodiment can fundamentally alter how we perceive the world around us. Both practical and philosophical, The Mental Image offers a luminous and disciplined approach to seeing, for photographers, artists, and anyone drawn to a deeper understanding of perception.
