Our pick today is a short article from the Guardian: New Topographics: photographs that find beauty in the banal.

Presidio, Texas, Feb 21st 1975 by Stephen Shore

The article introduces William Jenkins’s 1975 exhibition which “rewrote the rules of landscape photography” and serves as a brief, but useful primer for anyone discovering the ‘New Topographics’ genre for the first time.

There is a book about the ground breaking exhibition.
