William Eggleston
Mystery of the Ordinary
William Eggleston

How do we perceive the world, and what would it be without colour? As an artistic form of expression, colour was long frowned upon in photography – people worked in black and white. Beginning in the 1960s, more and more photographers discovered new visual possibilities; they called the movement New Colour Photography.

Hardly anyone used the material as radically as the pioneering American photographer William Eggleston, however. Eggleston, who influenced entire generations of photographers, recognized early on the inimitable power and unique compositional possibilities of invoking entire pictorial worlds through colour nuances. Eggleston succeeded in combining the everyday with a touch of the mysterious: colour became both an element and an opportunity to penetrate into and explore reality. With the exhibition William Eggleston: Mystery of the Ordinary, which runs from January 28 to May 4, 2023, C/O Berlin presents for the first time undiscovered works in Europe in dialogue with well-known images.
