In 1976 Rolling Stone magazine commissioned Eggleston to photograph Plains Georgia birthplace and hometown of presidential candidate Jimmy Carter. The project became the first of Eggleston's books of photographs and the subject of this exhibition of 100 type-c photographs at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. from December 10 1977 to January 22 1978. The photobook published by Caldecot Chubb in New York in an edition of just five numbered copies and two lettered artist's proofs reissued in a trade edition by Steidl in 2017 was not only Eggleston's first but his most elaborate containing one-hundred original prints in two leather-bound volumes housed in a linen box. Eggleston made these photographs in and around Plains—and along the route of his journey there from Memphis—on the eve of the 1976 Presidential election. When he crossed the border into Sumter County he circled Plains warily photographing the outlying countryside and the nearby fields and villages. "His reluctance to zero in too hastily on Carter's hometown was an indication partly of his purpose in making this series of images. He wanted to record Plains in the true context of its life as a Southern town: as a tiny way station on roads leading to other more vital places as the hub of a very small agricultural wheel. And this he has done . . . These photographs show us a place strikingly different from the one whose image was so carefully edited and construed for us by the media." from the Preface. N. B.
