Landscape and Industry
Landscape and Industry
As examined in his introductory essay, ‘Landscape and Industry’ is an exploration of how contemporary art can draw on the influences of early industrial 'record picture' photography. Photographed on large format, the subjects include landscapes, industrial structures and interiors; Battersea Power Station, Birmingham car factories, Pennsylvanian coal mines, cityscapes of London, New York and Paris, the Bedford brickworks, and the industrial remains on the Hoo Peninsula.
'The result is a magnetic stilless - these still photographs are properly still - that encourages an appreciation of the subject in all its shape and detail.' -
