Publisher: Harry N. Abrams: July 2001

Seller ID: 72585

ISBN: 0810942240

Binding: Hardcover

Condition: New - New

Aaron Rose has created one of the most remarkable bodies of work of any photographer living today, and for most of his career he did this in isolation, in a single-minded quest for visual enlightenment. He was virtually unknown to the photography world until five of his prints were exhibited at the 1997 Whitney Biennial, when he was in his late fifties.

Rose's images -- completely original visions of trees and plants; sun, stars, and clouds; shells; the New York City skyline -- are miracles of light and chemistry. A magician who builds his own cameras and mixes complex developing solutions i...

By now, broad segments of the population have heard widely varying opinions about the wall's effect on illegal immigration, international politics, and the drug war.

But what about the wall's effect on the Sonoran pronghorn antelope herds and the kit fox? On the Mexican gray wolf, the ocelot, the jaguar, and the bighorn sheep? In unforgettable images and evocative text, <...
