This monograph entitled 'In Plain Sight' is a survey of the multifaceted career of Jean Pagliuso who began her career in fashion and quickly rose to collaborate with film studios and directors. Her images, such as the unforgettable American Gigolo, have found their place in the visual history of the Motion Picture Industry. Always present in the last two decades of her work is a backdrop of subtle theatricality that has continually seeped into her expansive landscapes and even into the subtle Poultry Suite, showing portraits of chickens. An extensive traveller, Pagliuso examines the mystery of place. Her willing subjects become the temples and pyramids of Egypt, Peru, Mali, Cambodia, Burma and in the deserts of New Mexico. These fragile structures have inspired her to employ an equally sensitive approach to printing. The result is a unique process of hand-applied silver gelatin on rice paper. The book contains photos with text by the photographer and with a text edit by Joan Tewkesbury who scripted the award-winning film, Nashville.

Jean Pagliuso was born in California in 1941. She moved to New York in 1974 and in her forty-year career was published in Mademoiselle, NY Magazine, Italian Harper Bazaar, Vogue, Time, Rolling Stone, New York Times Magazine, Italian Vogue, Interview Magazine... In addition to her work in fashion, she photographed many movie posters, notably White Palace, American Gigolo, Dillinger, Thieves like Us, Three Women, and Splash. In 1995, Pagliuso’s attention turned to places of ritual and endangered environments. Pagliuso’s recent series are series of strictly formalised portraits of birds. The Poultry Suite is one of her most well-known works. She decided to take these chicken portraits in honor and memory of her father after his passing. He had raised chickens when she was a little girl.
