Book Reviews of Manufactured Landscapes: The Photographs of Edward Burtynsky
Book Review: A great read
Summary: 4 Stars
To enjoy the images by Edward Burtynsky as they are meant to be seen would be to go to one of his exhibitions, it is out of the question to expect a book to hold the same weight as seeing the photos in person.
I brought this book for the contextual information that it holds and I was not disappointed. It is important when studying an artists work to read what is written about it as well as viewing the images. The book contains many high quality colour images of Burtynskys work and also a large amount of written material that is well worth the read.
An excellent addition to my library.
Summary of Manufactured Landscapes: The Photographs of Edward Burtynsky
Over the past twenty-five years, the internationally renowned Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky has been an explorer of unfamiliar places where human activity has reshaped the surface of the land. His astonishing large-scale color photographs of the landscapes of mining, quarrying, railcutting, recycling, oil refining, and shipbreaking uncover a stark, almost sublime beauty in the residue of industrial "progress." The implicit social and environmental upheavals that underlie these images make them powerful emblems of our times. This handsome catalogue of the first major retrospective of Burtynsky's work features essays by Lori Pauli, Kenneth Baker, and Mark Haworth-Booth, as well as a wide-ranging interview with the artist by Michael Torosian. The book includes sixty-four color plates.Collections, Catalogues & Exhibitions Books
