Aro Favourite Manufactured Landscapes

 

 

Aroview: Astounding 'environmental' documentary centering on the landscape photography of Edward Burtynsky, whose large-scale images of industrialisation offer a moving discourse on globalization, mass consumption, heedless growth, and environmental decay.

Of major interest as socio-political or artistic artefact, film-maker Baichwal follows Burtynsky in China, narrowing her lens on his artistic process and cultural journey as well as his environmental subjects and their effect on the human communities that co-exist. Like Burtynsky 's photographs, the film exposes the ecological and environmental consequences of progress, while letting the mesmerising images speak for themselves.

Note: Baichwal also directed the equally impressive photography doco, THE TRUE MEANING OF PICTURES.
