His photographs are part of the permanent collection at the Experience Music Project museum in Seattle, Washington and the Arlington Cultural Affairs in Virginia. He has released two books of photography, Silent Pictures (Akashic, 2007) and Instrument (Chronicle, 2011), and shot commercially for brands such as Ray Ban, Converse, and Umbro.
"His intimate relationship with the band provided a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to chart the path of the young
hopefuls' rise to stardom--and now, Graham has assembled many of
those images in his newest book Modest Mouse."
-Cool Hunting "Looking at Pat Graham's photos of Modest Mouse,
newly collected in a book named after the band, you can sense the
closeness between the artist and his subject."
-The Fader "gorgeous....It captures everything from basement shows
to roadside goof-offs to intimate portraits of young artists at
work."
-The A.V. Club "as the pages turn, Graham's photographs go from
grainy black-and-white to rich color, tracking the band's momentous
progress. Holes-in-wall transform into cavernous concert halls.
Busted tour vans turn into a spacious tour buses."
-The Washington Post
