Misty Dawn
Book (italiano):
Over the course of his career,¨ock Sturges's long-term engagement with his subjects has been a cornerstone of his work. Misty Dawn, one of his primary and most popular muses is one such subject; he has photographed her for twenty-five of her twenty-eight years. Lithe, beautiful, classically proportioned, she is the personification of Sturges's philosophy of being at home in one's body. This volume follows her growth from a shy, tomboyish child to a gorgeous, confident young woman. Of her work with Sturges, Misty Dawn has said, "the best thing about Jock isn't that he is a photographer. The best thing is that he is someone who likes us, who sees us, who cares about us. Completely outside of his pictures, he helps us with our lives in so many ways because we are family to each other - this is the true subject of the photographs." Taken as a whole, this series of images presents a unique, fully realized portrait of a blossoming individual and explores a rare and beautiful relationship between photographer and subject. Misty Dawn: Portrait of a Muse presents iconic images as well as previously unpublished material, mined from Sturges's older contact prints and newest work.
