Art in the City. Texas. 1974 Stephen Shore, "West Ninth Avenue, Amarillo, Texas," October 2, 1974, from the series "American Surfaces," chromogenic print. Image courtesy the artist and 303 Gallery, New York. Last day to see it in the exhibition "Aperture Remix," (05/24 - 9/26, 2014) at Museum of Photographic Arts, San Diego. In the 1970s, Shore set the standard for large-format color photography of the vernacular landscape, producing coolly detailed photographs that transformed the environment into evocative tableaus. The "American Surfaces" series consists of snapshots photographed on the road to Amarillo, Texas between 1972–1973. #StephenShore in #Apertureremix @mopasd #PMxPostMeridiem
