Re-watching Burtynsky's Manufactured Landscapes
Re-watching Burtynsky's Manufactured Landscapes, an incredible interesting film about Burtynsky and his photographic style and about whats going on in China. Burtynsky draws connection to the natural landscape and man-made landscape. Its really an amazing view into Burtynsky's mind and the nature of his photograph. I have come to really appreciate his work and feel a camaraderie with him because i really enjoy shooting large format. You get a distinct depth to the photos taken in large format that you simple cannot get from any other format. I like the fact that the film itself was more done more extend the context of Burtynsky's photo's, i now know that Burtynskys' photo are more about what you bring to them, and that there is no set meaning to them. your left to your own device's, with your own baggage, as it were, to complete the meaning. the meaning isn't pinned down in any way, there is no singular meaning there are many ways you can read his work.
