Description
In Glen Canyon waters rose, inundating petroglyphs and creating Lake Powell. Now the Colorado River basin is experiencing the longest dry spell in brand new history—one that shows alarming signs of changing into the new normal.
In A New Form of Beauty photographer Peter Goin and author Peter Friederici tackle science from the perspective of art, creating a lyrical exploration in words and photographs, setting Glen Canyon and Lake Powell as the quintessential example of the challenges of perceiving place in a new era of radical change. Through evocative photography and extensive reporting, the two document their visits to the canyon country over a span of many years. By motorboat and kayak, they have got ventured into remote corners of the once-huge reservoir to pursue profound questions: What is this place? How do we see it? What is going to it develop into?
Goin’s full-color photographs are organized in three galleries—Flora and Fauna, Artifacts, and Low Water—interspersed with three essays by Friederici, and an epilogue gallery on Fire. The book includes two foldout photographs, which allow readers to fully see Lake Powell at high water and low water points
Contemplating humanity’s role on the planet it is creating, Goin and Friederici ask if the uncertainties inherent in Glen Canyon herald an unpredictable new future for each and every place. They challenge us to question how we look at the world, how we are living in it, and what the future will be.
