In his two iconic series, American Surfaces and Uncommon Places, he documented everyday Americana of the early 1970s on his cross-country road trips, including people he encountered in his journey, parking lots, motel rooms, meals atop tables, and vast and empty roadways.
Those series, credited for pioneering the use of color in art photography and influencing a subsequent generation of photographers worldwide, are on view at The Enduring Present: A Retrospective of Stephen Shore, at the Three Shadows Photography Art Centre in Beijing.
