Arguably one of the most important American photographers of the postwar generation, California-born Lewis Baltz is an artist whose work has always synthesized broad cultural issues. Known for his topographic, landscape-based photographs, Baltz breaks with the serial format in monumental color works made between 1991 and 1995. Techniques and formal cues from other visual media such as videos, film, and the surveillance camera are imported in masterfully produced pictures that represent the late-twentieth-century crisis of technology, nomadism, and the human body. This book highlights the works "Ronde de Nuit," "Docile Bodies," and "The Politics of Bacteria," which are elucidated in an essay by Cornelia H. Butler, associate curator at The Museum of Contemporary Art, where the works were exhibited in Spring 1998.
