Traces a key turning point in the history of photography: the young Joel Meyerowitz's early experiments in colour photography.

Just how, when and why US fine-art photographers switched from black-and-white image-making, which was prized within the gallery system, to colour photography, once seen as the preserve of the holiday snapper, has been the cause of much debate.
