ON THE BEACH

Posted on 2009-06-15

Since 2001, color photography pioneer Richard Misrach has made a series of large-scale, lushly colored photographs of swimmers and sunbathers in Hawaii. Working from a hotel adjacent to the beach, Misrach adopts a floating viewpoint that eliminates all reference to the horizon or sky to record people wholly immersed in the idyllic environment. The photographs, which are vast in scale and perspective, coax the particularities of nature into ethereal, nearly abstract patterns of color and light.
