Gregory Crewdson's 'Alone Street' monograph combines two major photographic series

Aperture published the monograph 'Alone Street' on November 16, 2021, featuring Gregory Crewdson's photographic series 'Cathedral of the Pines' and 'An Eclipse of Moths'. This 180-page hardback includes 47 images, behind-the-scenes photos, and storyboards, revealing the extensive preparation behind each work. Crewdson, born in Brooklyn in 1962 and a Yale School of Art graduate, explores the psychogeography of post-industrial New England through meticulously crafted scenes. His work has been described by art historian Alexander Nemerov as crystallizing the history and melancholy of these places. Crewdson is represented internationally by Gagosian Gallery and has received awards including the Skowhegan Medal for Photography. The book measures 12.8 x 9.5 x 0.94 inches and carries ISBN 9781683952459. Joyce Carol Oates, a Princeton University professor and award-winning author, and actor Cate Blanchett, a two-time Academy Award winner, are also mentioned in the context of Crewdson's broader recognition.
