Informazioni sull'autore
Betsy Fahlman is adjunct curator of American art at the Phoenix Art Museum and professor of art history at Arizona State University.
Dalla quarta di copertina
Landscapes of Extraction explores the art of mining, the transformative industry of the American West, competing in sublimity and striking color with the natural scenic landscape on its own terms. These landscapes of enterprise altered the natural environment on a spectacular scale, with open pit mines, coal tipples, and oil rigs.
How artists portrayed the mining industry in the American West is explored in the book with four scholarly essays. Artworks were inspired by the multiple landscapes created by large-scale mining, specifically the mines themselves, the towns that grew up around them, and the miners and their families who lived and worked there. The industry shaped communities and landscapes throughout the West: Arizona, California, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah. Landscapes of Extraction explores a powerful regional narrative that is a fundamental element of national identity played out on a vast geographical scale.

Gebunden. Condizione: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Ungelesenes, vollständiges Exemplar; in sehr gutem Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -'Landscapes of Extraction' widmet sich der Bergbauindustrie des amerikanischen Westens als landschaftsverwandelnde Kraft, die in ihrer Erhabenheit, in ihren Farben und Formen mit den Motiven der natürlichen Umgebung wetteifert. Tagebau, Kohleminen und Ölfördertürme veränderten in kolossalem Maßstab die Landschaft,wie der eindrucksvolle Band zeigt.Auf welch vielfältige Weise Künstler den Bergbau im amerikanischen Westen zu ihrem Thema erkürten, wird in vier Essays eingehend erforscht. Nicht nur die neu entstandenen Bergbaulandschaften, auch die in der Nähe gegründeten Städte und die Bergleute mit ihren Familien rückten in das Zentrum der Malerei. Die Mehrzahl der Bundesstaaten im Westen der USA - z. B. Arizona, Kalifornien, Nevada, Texas und Utah - war und ist nachhaltig geprägt von der Bergbauindustrie und ihren Eingriffen in die Landschaft. 176 pp. Englisch. Codice articolo 7326346

Landscapes of Extraction: The Art of Mining in the American West

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Hardcover. Condizione: New. New oversize hardcover in matte case wraps. Text is clean and free of marks or underlining. 4to. (9.5 x 0.8 x 11) Includes photos, art prints, appendix, and bibliography. 176 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. Works from an exhibition that proves mining can be as sublime as it is destructive. Landscapes of Extraction explores the art of mining, which completely transformed the American West. These landscapes of enterprise altered the natural environment on a spectacular scale, with open-pit mines, coal tipples, and oil rigs. Yet artists have often found these scenes beautiful, even sublime. The four scholarly essays presented here explore how artists have portrayed the mining industry in the American West from 1917 to the present day, examining more than eighty historical and contemporary works. The multiple landscapes created by large-scale mining inspired these artworks: the mines themselves, the towns that grew up around them, and the miners and their families who lived and worked there. The industry has shaped communities and landscapes throughout the West: Arizona, California, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Texas, and Utah. Over time, as public knowledge of mining practices increased, artists became more attuned to the environmental and health impacts of mining. From the late twentieth century onward, mining art became political, with many artists interested in exposing the vexed legacies of the industry. Landscapes of Extraction reveals how a powerful regional narrative became a fundamental element of national identity, played out on a vast geographical scale. Codice articolo 203251
