Landscape


 
LL/1625
 
The documentation of the landscape has shifted from the Romantic ideal of the "Sublime" to a contemporary focus on environmental fragility and human intervention. Luminous-Lint maps this trajectory through the lens of early surveys, the work of the f/64 group, and the New Topographics movement.
