Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'The American Rockies' presents an extraordinary visual diary of Gus Fosters Rocky Mountain odyssey with his panoramic camera. Foster climbed the major peaks along the backbone of the continent from the Canadian border to the border with Mexico, photographing the spectacular landscape sometimes at greater than 360 degrees. As James Enyeart writes in 'A Travelers Notebook': A lifetime of travel places Gus Foster in a succession of artists who have gained insight and inspiration from the exotic and unfamiliar. Fosters panoramic photographs enable even the armchair traveler to experience the enormous grandeur of the Rockies. Essays included are by James Enyeart, Anne and John Marion Professor of Photographic Arts and the Director of the Marion Center at the College of Santa Fe; Alan Wallach, Ralph H. Wark Professor of Art and Art History and Professor of American Studies at the College of William and Mary; Roger Badash, Fosters longtime climbing companion; and Gus Foster.

The experience photographing--and later, filming--through the moving car's window greatly influenced his later use of panoramic cameras and his exploration of time. Foster was also impressed by landscapes of the mountain West by pioneer photographers Carleton Watkins, Timothy O'Sullivan, and W. H. Jackson that documented the majestic vastness of the Rocky Mountains. He would spend fifteen years photographing the Rockies, crossing the continent from Canada to Mexico, and climbing the highest summits carrying a load of equipment much like these early photographers. This retrospective monograph is a remarkable visual record of Foster's forty-five-year journey making panoramic images and details the photographer's travels across North America and beyond. From Alaskan glaciers to Times Square in New York City, he turned his cameras on high mountain terrain and desert and urban lowlands, as well the massive acreage used for food production with its landscapes of wheat, corn, wild rice, and other crops. Also included is a selection of Time Photographs made with a portable panoramic camera capturing multiple revolutions of more than 1000 degrees while literally recording multiple moments in time in a single image. The scale of Foster's photographs--prints measuring up to sixteen feet--are distinctive and impressive. The 360-degree angle of a Foster panorama, writes Evan M. Maurer, 'turns in a circle; at one glance, you can see everything around you--to infinity from any point on the compass. As Gus told me, 'It's like having eyes in the back of your head.'" - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: A traveler's notebook: reconstructing feelings, by James L.
