€1,436.00
A moving account of nature's capacity for asserting itself, featuring 36 black and white accordion-fold panoramas of quarries in Europe and America.
Over a period of two years, Czech-French photographer Josef Koudelka traveled through the quarries of the Groupe Lhoist in Europe and America. The book captures 36 images showing the industrial exploitation of deposits and its fascinating impact on the landscape. It is presented as an exquisite leporello (accordion-fold) bound in printed gray paper-covered boards, with a corrugated cardboard clamshell case. The work includes an introduction by Jean-Pierre Berghmans and an essay by Gilles A. Tiberghien.
