Hardback. Condizione: Good. In 1997 I had what I refer to as my oil epiphany. It occurred to me that the vast, human-altered landscapes that I pursued and photographed for over twenty years were only made possible by the discovery of oil and the mechanical advantage of the internal combustion engine. It was then that I began the oil project. Over the next ten years I researched and photographed the largest oil fields I could find. I went on to make images of refineries, freeway interchanges, automobile plants and the scrap industry that results from the recycling of cars. Then I began to look at the culture of oil, the motor culture, where masses of people congregate around vehicles, with vehicle events as the main attraction. These images can be seen as notations by one artist contemplating the world as it is made possible through this vital energy resource and the cumulative effects of industrial evolution.

Prima edizione (First Edition). . "Nel 1997 ho avuto quella che chiamo la mia epifania del petrolio. Mi venne in mente che i vasti paesaggi modificati dall'uomo che ho inseguito e fotografato per più di vent'anni erano stati resi possibili solo dalla scoperta del petrolio e dal vantaggio meccanico del motore a combustione interna. Fu allora che iniziai il progetto Oil. Nei dieci anni successivi ho ricercato e fotografato i più grandi campi di petrolio che ho potuto trovare. Ho continuato a fare immagini di raffinerie, svincoli autostradali, impianti automobilistici e dell'industria del rottame che risulta dal riciclaggio delle auto. Poi ho cominciato a guardare la cultura del petrolio, la cultura dei motori, per cui masse di persone si riuniscono intorno ai veicoli, con eventi automobilistici come attrazione principale. Queste immagini possono essere viste come annotazioni di un artista che contempla il mondo come è stato reso possibile da questa risorsa energetica vitale e dagli effetti cumulativi dell'evoluzione industriale".

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Edward Burtynsky's Oil collects a decades' worth of photographing the world's largest oil fields, refineries, freeway interchanges and automobile plants, in an attempt to comprehend the scale of production attending this most politicized of resources. The ideal photographer for this job, Burtynsky locates and documents the sites that urban dwellers never see, and questions human accountability. His imagery is vast in both scale and ambition, revealing the apparatus behind the energy we mine from dwindling resources, and the ongoing effects of the industrial revolution. "In 1997 I had what I refer to as my oil epiphany," Burtynsky explains: "it occurred to me that all the vast, man-altered landscapes I had been in pursuit of for over 20 years were all possible because of the discovery of oil and the mechanical advantage of the internal combustion engine." Burtynsky's epiphany is typical of his desire to lift the scrim of everyday life and reveal the basic resources that keep it in place. What lies beyond is not pretty, and the images in Oil sometimes resemble the post-apocalyptic desert landscapes of Mad Max, with their vast horizons of featureless sand and desert foliage, punctuated by creaky-looking oil machinery. With a unflinching eye, Burtynsky presents us with the reality of oil production as its role in our civilization undergoes massive transformation.…
