What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘inspiring’ - The Independent ‘sumptuous … a kind of visual diary .. The first question [Meyerowitz] asked himself back in 1962 was “How do I choose what to photograph?” It’s a question that resounds in different, ever more complex ways throughout the book, as he shifts formats and styles, reinventing himself continuously.’ - Sean O’Hagan, The Observer ‘Meyerowitz’s work never fails to bring something new to the table, and Taking My Time - available as an epic limited edition monograph from Phaidon - is a collection that demands to be studied at length.’ - Rob Wilkes, We Heart blog

He was one of a small group of photographers who, in the 1960s and 70s was instrumental in changing attitudes towards colour photography from those of resistance to universal acceptance.
