 | Edward Burtynsky: TED Prize wish: Share the story of Earth's http://www.ted.com Accepting his 2005 TED Prize, photographer Edward Burtynsky makes a wish: that his images -- stunning landscapes that document humanity's impact on the world -- help persuade millions to join a global conversation on sustainability. Burtynsky presents a riveting slideshow of his photographs, which show vividly how industrial development is altering the Earth's natural landscape. From mountains of tires to rivers of bright orange waste from a nickel mine, his images are simultaneously beautiful and horrifying. |

 | Manufactured Landscapes Manufactured 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 judgements or reductive resolutions. In the process, it tries to shift our consciousness about the world and the way we live in it. 2006, Canada, 90 mins. |
 | Edward Burtynsky on The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos http://www.cbc.ca/thehour 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. |
