Photographer Edward Burtynsky in Studio Qwww.cbc.ca Ed Burtynsky is known for these contradictory images of beauty and horror that document industrialization's effects on the landscape. He says the role of his photographs are to merely document, and wants people to leave with their own impressions of his work. With his latest exhibit, "Oil", does such a contentious topic put his role as an artist in contradiction to his role as a sustainability advocate?
Edward Burtynsky on The Hour with George Stroumboulopouloswww.cbc.ca Edward Burtynsky grew up in St. Catharines, Ontario where the GM plant played a big part of his early life. Ed found his calling young. His auto worker dad picked up some used equipment and set him up with a basement darkroom when he was 11. Within a year, young Edward was selling his shots for 75 cents a pop to his neighbours and using the proceeds to buy more film. Today, Burtynsky's work is instantly recognizable. He works big. The prints are of epic proportions - and so are the projects he tackles. Dams, quarries, mines, freeways and factories - no one captures the awesome - and awful - ambition of human industry quite like him. Burtynsky's work was also the subject of the award-winning 2007 documentary, "Manufactured Landscapes" and this year he's being recognized with an "Eco-Hero" award from the Planet in Focus Environmental Film Festival.

Rockburn Presents - Ed BurtynskySt. Catharines native Edward Burtynsky has developed an international following for his photographs of industrial landscapes. Environmentalists have lauded his work as illustrations of the brutality of human enterprise on the planet. Ed Burtynsky grew up in St. Catharines, Ontario where his father, who worked at the local GM plant, taught him how to take pictures and develop film. Burtynsky graduated with a BA in Photography from Ryerson and became a landscape photographer after he stumbled upon on an old coal mine in Pennsylvania and was struck by the beauty of white birch saplings growing on a landscape of barren rock and slag. From photographing mines, Burtynsky then began photographing oil fields and other industrial sites, travelling around the world, from China to Bangladesh to Australia. His photographs of industrial landscapes are included in the collections of over fifty major museums around the world, including the National Gallery of Canada, the Bibliotèque Nationale in Paris and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Most recently, his photographs of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico appeared on the front page of the Globe and Mail. Ken Rockburn spoke to Edward Burtynsky at his studio in Toronto.
Manufactured LandscapesManufactured Landscapes - a feature documentary by Jennifer Baichwal (Uploaded for post at urbancartography.com) MANUFACTURED LANDSCAPES is a feature length documentary on the world and work of renowned artist Edward Burtynsky. Burtynsky makes large-scale photographs of 'manufactured landscapes' -- quarries, recycling yards, factories, mines, dams. He photographs civilization's materials and debris, but in a way people describe as "stunning" or "beautiful," and so raises all kinds of questions about ethics and aesthetics without trying to easily answer them. The film follows Burtynsky to China as he travels the country photographing the evidence and effects of that country's massive industrial revolution. Sites such as the Three Gorges Dam, which is bigger by 50% than any other dam in the world and displaced over a million people, factory floors over a kilometre long, and the breathtaking scale of Shanghai's urban renewal are subjects for his lens and our motion picture camera. Shot in Super-16mm film, Manufactured Landscapes extends the narrative streams of Burtynsky's photographs, allowing us to meditate on our profound impact on the planet and witness both the epicentres of industrial endeavour and the dumping grounds of its waste. What makes the photographs so powerful is his refusal in them to be didactic. We are all implicated here, they tell us: there are no easy answers. The film continues this approach of presenting complexity, without trying to reach simplistic ...

Edward Burtynsky at the 2011 A+E Conference - Full versionArtist Edward Burtynsky presents "In The Wake of Progress" at the 2011 A+E Conference at the Nevada Museum of Art. In his large-scale photographs, Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky examines nature as it is transformed through industry. Recycling yards, mine tailings, quarries and refineries are all places outside the everyday experience of the average person, yet Burtynsky notes that we all partake of their industrial production on a daily basis. Burtynsky's dramatic images are metaphors for the dilemma of modern existence, as they seek a dialogue between attraction and repulsion, seduction and fear. Presented by the Carol Franc Buck Foundation
