La réédition augmentée du célèbre livre de photographie publié en 1976 par Neal Slavin, pionnier du portrait de groupe en couleur, apportant un éclairage saisissant sur les hiérarchies et les dynamiques sociales aux Etats-Unis.
Neal Slavin a commencé à réaliser des portraits de groupe au début des années 1970, intrigué par la dynamique sociale des groupes et les motivations qui sous-tendent leur formation. Alors que les portraits eux-mêmes étaient le plus souvent posés, Slavin demandait à ses sujets de se placer, ce qui permettait de faire émerger des hiérarchies naturelles et des indications de statut. Lorsque la série a été publiée pour la première fois en 1974, elle a été reconnue comme une référence instantanée dans le domaine émergent de la photographie couleur, un domaine qui comprenait des photographes tels que Stephen Shore et William Eggleston. Considérée comme une sorte de coup de gueule, mais présentée comme une expérience sociale sérieuse, When Two or More Are Gathered Together a été remarqué pour ses éclairages surprenants sur la vie sociale américaine. Cinquante ans plus tard, les États-Unis sont aux prises avec de profondes divisions sociales et des troubles politiques.
Cette édition augmentée pour le cinquantième anniversaire de When Two or More Are Gathered Together revient sur la question de l'unité sociale aux États-Unis et inclut de nouveaux sujets – chiens, escrimeurs et femmes de chambre – dont certains n'ont été photographiés qu'en 2023. Un essai de l'historien de l'art Kevin Moore offre un éclairage historique à ce corpus de photographies couleur anciennes, plus pertinent et actuel que jamais.

This expanded fifty-year anniversary edition of When Two or More Are Gathered Together revisits the question of social unity in the United States and includes new subjects-dogs, fencers and chambermaids-some photographed as recently as 2023.
Neal Slavin began taking group portraits in the early 1970s, intrigued by the social dynamics of groups and the motivations behind their formation. While the pictures themselves were most often posed, Slavin instructed his subjects to arrange themselves, allowing natural hierarchies and indications of status to emerge. When the series was first published in 1974, it was recognized as an instant landmark in the emerging field of color photography, a field that included photographers such as Stephen Shore and William Eggleston. Regarded as something of a deadpan stunt, yet framed as a serious social experiment, When Two or More Are Gathered Together was appreciated for its surprising insights into American social life. Fifty years later, on the eve of a presidential election, the United States grapples with profound social division and political unrest.
An essay by art historian Kevin Moore offers historical context for this timely and relevant body of early color photography.
