Over a twenty-five year career exploring the landscape as transformed by industry, the celebrated Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky has accumulated a body of work on large-scale quarries around the world. Including Canada, Italy, China, Spain, Portugal, India and America these thought-provoking studies of sites that are created as we dig into the earth for material in order to build our cities, urge us to consider how we as viewers are simultaneously attracted yet repulsed by these landscapes – somewhere a building is created while a landscape is destroyed. Edward Burtynsky, is one of Canada’s most respected photographers. His remarkable photographic depictions of global industrial landscapes are included in the collections of 16 major museums around the world, including the National Gallery of Canada, the Bibliothèque nationale in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Ed Burtynsky’s numerous distinctions include the TED Prize, The Outreach award at the Rencontres d’Arles, and Canada’s highest civil honour: Officer of the Order of Canada. In 2005 Steidl published his celebrated book China.
Edward Burtynsky is a Canadian photographer. His previous publications include Water, Oil, Quarries, China, and Manufactured Landscapes.

Oversized Hardcover. Condición: Good. After some 25 years of exploring the impact of industry on the earth, Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky has accumulated a substantial body of work documenting the world's major quarries - in Canada, China, Spain, Portugal, India, and America. A crucial source of buildings, quarries, as such, are a negative correlative of what gets added to the world - as well as a tangible (and neglected) evidence for our ongoing dependence on its resources. Burtynsky's color images of these plundered landscapes are simultaneously beautiful and disquieting. Illus., 80 color photographs. 176p. Nº de ref. del artículo: 2410651

Nel corso di una carriera venticinquennale che esplora il paesaggio trasformato dall'industria, il celebre fotografo canadese Edward Burtynsky ha accumulato un corpus di lavoro sulle cave a larga scala realizzato in tutto il mondo. Includendo il Canada, l'Italia, la Cina, la Spagna, il Portogallo, l'India e l'America, questi studi provocatori di siti che vengono creati quando scaviamo nella terra per trovare materiale per costruire le nostre città, ci spingono a considerare come noi, come spettatori, siamo simultaneamente attratti e respinti da questi paesaggi - da qualche parte un edificio viene creato mentre un paesaggio viene distrutto.

After some 25 years of exploring the impact of industry on our planet, the celebrated Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky has accumulated a substantial body of work documenting the world's major quarries--in Canada, Italy, China, Spain, Portugal, India and America. Quarries are, of course, a crucial source for the buildings we construct, and as such, a negative correlative of what we add to the world--as well as a tangible (and neglected) evidence for our ongoing dependence on its resources. Somewhere a building is being created while a landscape is being destroyed, and, as Burtynsky writes, "quarriesare places that are outside of our normal experience, yet we partake of their output on a daily basis." His images of these plundered landscapes are simultaneously beautiful and disquieting. EB; 14.8 X 11.5 X 1.0 inches; 191 pages. Nº de ref. del artículo: 59141
