Notes de l'éditeur
The picture plane is the flat surface of a two-dimensional work. The space is only implied, as there is no actual depth. Artists use many devices to give the illusion of depth: 1. Overlapping: The elephant seen in its entirety is viewed as the closest. 2. Position: The performers at the bottom are viewed as the closest (foreground), followed by those in the middle-ground. The most important person in this story is the Indian prince in the background. The space of the architectural setting frames him, and the implied line of the gaze from his court and attendants points him out. An important feature of the Eastern aesthetic is the flattened space. Profile views are common, as they give the least implication of depth. It is conceptually convincing, but not optically convincing.
BURTYNSKY - CHINA In the autumn of 2005, Edward Burtynsky presents his latest release of work, photographs of both remnant and newly established zones of Chinese industrialization. Using diplomatic channels Burtynsky has gained rare access to the extreme expressions of Chinese industry, creating images that are at once arresting and unsettling. These photographs afford us a privileged glimpse of the vast social and economic transformations currently underway in China.
