| Summary |
"Taking her homeland Australia as the subject of her photography, Rosemary Laing presents a spectacular vision of the country both haunted by history and alive to the present. From the airborne brides of Flight research to the carpeted forests of Groundspeed, Laing's photographic series commemorate site-specific interventions undertaken across Australia, capturing the continent in panoramas of extraordinary beauty and strangeness. With an incisive critical essay by art historian Abigail Solomon-Godeau on Laing's engagement with the politics of place and contemporary Australian culture, this volume comprehensively surveys the artist's career-long exploration of a new form of landscape photography."--Back cover |
