In the mid-1990s, Pagliuso shifted to experimenting with photographic printing processesa concern that still animates her workbut her experience in the fashion and motion picture industries continues to inflect her photography, imbuing it with a subtle sense of theatricality. Whether Pagliuso is photographing the expansive deserts of New Mexico, the pyramids of Egypt, fashion models or chickens, she produces engaging and ethereal images with an indelible presence. This comprehensive monograph on Pagliuso's career of over five decades features an introduction and personal essay by Jean Pagliuso.
