Through an interdisciplinary lens, this book examines how contemporary photography captures shifting attitudes towards Dutch land, water, history, and identity, in a context of the Netherlands at a crossroads of industrial globalization and climate vulnerability.
The study presents the Dutch landscape as a case study, exploring the ways in which contemporary projects of landscape photography reflect changing attitudes towards land and nature, in the context of global climate and social change. The author takes the approach from both an art historical angle, against the background of the famous history of Dutch landscape painting, and a cultural geographic dimension, specifically how climate change is altering the understanding of the physical Dutch landscape. Each of the photographic projects in the book, by key contemporary Dutch artists, addresses aspects of these issues in their own way while engaging with both climate change and seventeenth-century Dutch landscape painting. Artists featured include Kim Boske, Marie-José Jongerius, Ellen Kooi, Awoiska van der Molen and Edwin Zwakman.
This book is ideal for scholars and practitioners in photography, art history, cultural geography, environmental humanities, landscape architecture and Dutch studies.
