Artwork of the Week: Memphis, Tennessee


From the series Memphis, Tennessee by William Eggleston
dye transfer print, 16 x 20", 1970-1973

Speaking of William Eggleston, this is one of my favorites of his photographs. I'm not totally sure if the image has its own title, as it comes from a series he did over 3 years, but  apparently the freezer belongs to the man himself

There's a reason why MTV's Cribs always included a shot of the inside of the celebrity's fridge. You can tell a lot about a person from the things that they like to keep stocked. If you peered into ours you'd see we prefer to keep our M&Ms in there---nothing quite like the click of the cold candy shell against your teeth.
