Eye to Eye: Photographs by Graham Nash

by Graham Nash, Garrett White (Introduction)

Eye to Eye gathers for the first time more than 150 photographs by rock musician Graham Nash. While best known as a founding member of the rock band Crosby, Stills, Nash, and (sometimes) Young, Nash also developed a parallel career as a photographer, collector, and pioneer of digital imaging. Shot between 1969 and 2003, Nash's photographs include revealing portraits of family and friends, images of life on the road, still lifes and landscapes, street photographs, and a unique series of self-portraits which often shows him reflected in windows and mirrors. Eye to Eye establishes Nash as a masterful visual artist with a keen eye for moments and scenes not immediately available to the common eye.

Reviews

[Deb · Rating 4 out of 5]

I still think that Crosby, Stills and Nash (sometimes with Young) made some of the best music ever. Graham Nash writes about his life so far, including a large chunk of it spent with this supergroup, but including his life in the UK, music with The Hollies, and his own solo work. He shares lots of interesting anecdotes about his musical companions and other friends, and if you were a young adult during the same time he was, this will be especially relevant and enjoyable. Besides his musical talent, Nash is a talented photographer (hence the book's title) and artist. Recommended.
