In the sixth installment of The Photography Workshop Series, Richard
Misrach--well known for sublime and expansive landscapes that focus on
the relationship between humans and their environment--offers his
insight into creating photographs that are visually beautiful and
contain cultural implications.
Aperture Foundation works with the world's top photographers to distill
their creative approaches to, teachings on, and insights into
photography--offering the workshop experience in a book. Our goal is to
inspire photographers at all levels who wish to improve their work, as
well as readers interested in deepening their understanding of the art
of photography. Through images and words, in this volume Misrach shares
his own creative process and discusses a wide range of issues, from the
language of color photography and the play of light and atmosphere, to
transcending place and time through metaphor, myth, and abstraction.
