Edward Burtynsky

Edward Burtynsky's highly detailed and razor sharp photography has garnered him an international reputation.

His works generally focus on places where human activity interrupts the existence of nature: quarries, industrial refineries and shipyards, for example: human detritus on the one hand; vast blank nature on the other.

Exquisitely detailed and exactly rendered, Burtynsky's images strike an intricate balance between a sombre reportage and a powerfully seductive aesthetic.
