David Plowden: Vanishing Point: Fifty Years of Photography [精裝]

內容簡介

This beautiful volume is both a tribute to and a celebration of the photographer who, more than anyone else, has produced a visual record of man's mark on the American land over the last half-century. David Plowden's beautiful black-and-white images reveal his great respect for man's ingenuity and honest work, documenting a disappearing landscape of industry, small towns, wonderful devices and noble structures.David McCullough writes, "Plowden has produced some of the most powerful photographs we have of man-made America. He is propelled, driven, by a sense of time running out and the feeling that he must not just make a record, but confer a kind of immortality on certain aspects of American civilization before they vanish." As Walker Evans gave us the first half of twentieth-century America, David Plowden has given us the second. "David Plowden: Vanishing Point" represents the best of this magnificent body of work.
