Description



Book Synopsis



Alex Webb captures in bold color the vitality of city life in the US--rich with visual rhythm and chance encounters--seeing the quintessential elements of American self-invention and improvisation.

In Walking Blues, the acclaimed street photographer Alex Webb traverses some forty cities across the United States, documenting moments of connection between communities with his signature eye for bold color and rhythm. Webb was inspired by the lift and pull of blues music, a quintessential American musical form that scores the nation's history, and his photographs express the improvisation of chance encounters. The culmination of more than a decade of intuitive, open-minded exploration, Webb's latest book is a vivid chronicle of urban life today.
