Book Signing for Ed Templeton's "Wayward Cognitions"

On Sunday AT 1:00 we'll be hosting a book signing with the immensely talented Ed Templeton for his fantastic new collection of photography: "Wayward Cognitions".

"Wayward Cognitions" is a collection of photographs by Ed Templeton, chosen from his archives spanning twenty years. For this volume, Templeton selected images that do not fit into his usual manner of organizing by theme or subject. In past publications he has arranged his work in straightforward groupings such as Teenage Kissers, Teenage Smokers, or photographs shot from a moving car. In "Deformer", he presented the photographs under the theme of suburbia. "Wayward Cognitions" represents the in-between moments that arise when shooting in the streets without theme or subject. "It's about looking, people watching, finding pleasure in the visual vignettes we glimpse each day," says Templeton. When those moments are removed from the context in which they were shot, dynamic stories can be told or imagined in book form. The photographs in "Wayward Cognitions" were printed by Templeton in his darkroom; he then created the layout and design himself, building the book from scratch in his home studio."

Please note: Priority will be given to those buying "Wayward Cognitions" from us on Sunday. Those bringing other material for Mr. Templeton to sign must wait until same-day purchasers have had their books signed. Thank you for your cooperation.
