Description:
Meyerowitz, Joel. BAY/SKY. Forward by Norman Mailler. Bulfinch, Little Brown and Company. New York. A very fine copy in very fine dust jacket. Signed and inscribed by Joel Meyerowitz. Please email for photo of signature.From Library Journal Evoking Monet's studies of light and Stieglitz's equivalents, Meyerowitz here refines a vision begun in his earlier collection depicting Cape Cod, Cape Light ( LJ 3/1/79).

Perspective and selective focus are no longer of primary concern; the horizon line becomes the only spatial marker in many images. The 47 color plates are meticulously printed from the 8 10 view-camera negatives. An introduction by Norman Mailer, the afterword by Meyerowitz, and a list of plates are the only text.
