The
Modern Maya "Macduff Everton's photographs
are some of the most haunting and beautiful documents of Maya life --
ancient and modern -- I have seen. They provide viewpoints that are
uniquely his own, and with artistry and sensitivity, they open up for
us, the Western world, a window into the experiences of another people." |

The
Western Horizon The American West has been romanticized and mythologized, painted and photographed and filmed. But it has rarely been captured in the scale of Macduff Everton's photographs. Accompanying the photographs are lyrical and informative commentaries by Mary Heebner. Edmund Morris, the renowned biographer, contributes a foreword on the place of the West in American culture and history. Click to see images

That's
Not Entirely True "Macduff Everton's series
of "fotoverigraphs" is an unusually imaginative and witty piece of
work. No academic could offer a more persuasive demonstration of
the elasticity of photographic meaning -- or one so full of pleasure
and surprise." |
