Greenland has the most expansive continental ice sheet in the world. Otto Olaf Becker’s spectacular portraits of this region are taken with a cumbersome and heavy large-format camera during physically strenuous, sometimes life-threatening tours among glacial crevasses and snowmelt flows.
Becker's photographic studies reveal the overwhelming beauty of this ice-covered landscape while at the same time documenting the existential threat to it, for even here, in this completely uninhabited region, human influences have fatal consequences - dust and soot in the air form black, crusty deposits that, in conjunction with global warming, accelerate the melting of the ice sheets - with no doubt unavoidable catastrophic results.
PLEASE NOTE: This book is a NON-MINT item. NON-MINT books are new but are either ex-display copies or warehouse marked - minor cosmetic imperfections such as scuffs, marks, or minor dents to the covers.
