Stephen Shore is one of the most influential photographers living today. His photographs from the 1970s, taken as he embarked on road trips across America, established him as a pioneer in the use of colour in art photography. His capturing of the minutiae of life, the seemingly unimportant, and doing so – radically – in colour, singled him out from the traditional documentary photographers of the everyday. He has influenced generations of photographers – from Thomas Struth and Andreas Gursky, to Nan Goldin and Wolfgang Tillmans. He has been director of the Photography Program at Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, since 1982. In 1971 Shore became the first living photographer to have a solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. His photographs have since been included in many exhibitions, including the Tate Modern's first exhibition of photography 'Cruel and Tender' in 2003. His work has been collected by museums around the world including the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Shore's published photobooks include Uncommon Places: The Complete Works , American Surfaces , A Road Trip Journal and the print-on-demand The Book of Books . Shore has also written a primer on the visual function of photographs, The Nature of Photographs . In 2013, Phaidon published A New York Minute , Shore’s first iBook.
