Summary

A fiercely independent artist. Rondal Partridge has spent seven decades building a body of work that reflects his aesthetic integrity, eccentric temperament, and fascination with every aspect of the world around him. The result is a visual history like no other: the changing landscapes of Yosemite National Park and the San Francisco Bay Area: striking images from rodeos, junkyards, and flea markets: and an amazing assembly of still lifes, portraits, and unclassifiable but arresting compositions. As the son of celebrated photographer Imogen Cunningham and as an apprentice to Dorothea Lange and Ansel Adams. Partridge began learning technique and developing his art almost from birth. Yet he has chosen to be, as he says, "the least publicized of the old fashioned California photographers." Quizzical Eye, the first published collection of Partridge's work, now makes accessible this lifetime in photography. From quiet moments to monumental landscapes, these images will amuse, disturb, puzzle, and stir you. Book jacket.
