与Saul Leiter，Joel Meyerowitz，Stephen Shore和William Eggleston等美国摄影师一样，Harry Gruyaert是20世纪70年代和80年代为数不多的探索色彩的创造可能性的欧洲先驱之一。 在过去的几十年中，黑白摄影已经被提升到艺术领域，使色彩居于次要地位，被用于广告，报刊和插图。Gruyaert的作品意味着彩色摄影的新领域：一种有感染力的，非叙事性的和大胆的感知世界的平面方式。

Gruyaert将纹理，光线，色彩和建筑无缝糅合的能力在这本新的摄影集中发挥出了极好的效果。他拍摄的机场照片以非常美——有时候不真实——的方式记录了位于天地之间，但可以放心栖息的空间。

Alongside American photographers such as Saul Leiter, Joel Meyerowitz, Stephen Shore and William Eggleston, Harry Gruyaert became one of the few European pioneers to explore the creative possibilities of colour in the 1970s and 1980s. The previous decades had elevated black and white photography to the realms of art, relegating colour to use in advertising, the press and illustration. Gruyaert's work suggested new territory for colour photography: an emotive, non-narrative and boldly graphic way of perceiving the world.

Gruyaert's ability to seamlessly weave texture, light, colour and architecture comes together to wonderful effect in this new collection. His photographs of airports beautifully - and at times surreally - record these liminal, yet reliably inhabited spaces.
