About the artworkRalph Gibson was born in 1939 in Los Angeles. Gibson began with photography while in the Navy, then pursued his studies at the San Francisco Art Institute 1960-62 and was a photo assistant to both Dorothea Lange and Robert Frank. Gibson's images often have a dreamy, psychological element, where the gaze plays a vital part. He is especially noteworthy for his contributions as the editor of his own publishing house, Lustrum Press, which has produced a number of seminal books on photography and was one of the first to publish works by photographers such as Robert Frank and Larry Clark.
