Description
Ralph Eugene Meatyard Stages for Being is a photography monograph that explores the work of Ralph Eugene Meatyard, who created stage sets in his native Kentucky to portray his circle of friends and compose eerie tableaux. Using natural lighting, masks, dolls, and found objects as props, Meatyard established mood and mined architectural detail for abstract compositional elements. Meatyard's process was informed by a wide range of interests, including jazz, painting, literature, history, and Zen Buddhism, which sparked endless ideas for his photographs. His work was also shaped by dialogue with a group of peers, including writers, photographers, and artists who were engaged with contemporary ideas and practice in their fields. This book presents Meatyard's photography as a unique and powerful exploration of the human experience, one that continues to inspire and intrigue audiences today.
