    Move Over Graceland! Memphis to Build William Eggleston Museum

    MEMPHIS, Tenn.— "At this writing I have not yet visited Memphis, or northern Mississippi, and thus have no basis for judging how closely the photographs in this book might seem to resemble that part of the world and the life that is lived there," begins John Szarkowski, the late Museum of Modern Artphotography curator, in his introduction to William Eggleston's "Guide" in 1976. Soon, lovers of Eggleston can do what Szarkowski had not: view the Memphis native's images of his hometown, in his hometown. The Commercial Appeal reportsthat plans are underway for a $15 million, 15,000-square-foot private William Eggleston museum in Memphis.
