PAP NYC 2009

SKU 80394

The eightyfive astounding black-and-white photographs collected in Sites of Impact transcend the purely documentary and intersect the sublime. In addition to photographs of the craters and their surrounding landscapes, Gaz includes photographs of actual meteorites and of his own carefully crafted sculptures that recreate their often dynamic form and mimic their specific mineral content. Anecdotal passages about the artist’s experiences photographing each crater are interspersed with scientific data regarding the crater’s location, age, structure, and condition.
