Summary:
Since its invention, photography has been used to document and interpret the landscape. Survey photographers in the 1860s were the first environmental advocates, arguing for the U.S. national park system. During the first half of the 20th century photographers Ansel Adams and Eliot Porter were central figures in influencing American attitudes toward wilderness and conservation. This book traces the development of environmental photography beginning with Adams, Porter and others, and the next generation of landscape photographers - Robert Adams, Richard Misrach, Robert Glenn Ketchum, Patrick Nagatani, Mark Klett, whose works confronted the issues of landscape and the environment in less idealised terms. Shifting from the historical framework, the book presents new work by twenty-three photographers working in the U.S., the next wave of artists using the camera to engage the environmental issues of the day. Ranging from documentary to conceptual, the photographs touch on topics such as land and water use, the human place in the landscape, mounting consumer waste, industrial pollution, roof gardens and the green roof initiative, local food production, energy consumption, and the effects of industry on humans and animals. Katherine Ware's text offers insightful commentary on photography and the ways that environmental issues have been framed and advanced through the medium of photography. This is a powerful commentary on global environmental issues as seen through the lens of the newest wave of environmental photographers. This book is published to coincide with an exhibition to open at the New Mexico Museum of Art, Santa Fe, New Mexico, in April 2011.

Summary:
Rares sont les moments où deux civilisations se rencontrent hors des champs de bataille. L'histoire qui se joue au Japon, entre 1868 et la fin du XIXe siècle, est l'un de ces moments magiques. Après plus de deux siècles de quasi isolement, l'Archipel ouvre ses ports. L'Ouest et le Far Est se rencontrent. La guerre est évitée de justesse. L'étranger, auparavant haï et craint, devient conseiller. Loin de s'opposer, modernité et tradition se conjuguent. Leur union permet l'extraordinaire transformation du pays : les seigneurs renoncent à leurs privilèges, les castes disparaissent et le train à vapeur relie bientôt Yokohama à Tôkyô, la nouvelle capitale créée à l'Ouest. La photographie vient d'être inventée : elle sera à la fois le témoin et l'acteur de cette rencontre. L'empereur pose devant l'objectif en uniforme occidental. Les studios photographiques se multiplient. L'ancien samouraï et le commerçant portent le chapeau melon et se font tirer le portrait. Derrière la chambre photographique, l'oeil est d'abord occidental puis japonais. Le Japon apprend vite. Les tirages noir et blanc sont coloriés à la main par des dizaines d'artisans utilisant les mêmes pigments que ceux servant aux estampes.
