Edward Burtynsky: Quarries

The Robert Koch Gallery will host Quarries, a series of color photographs by Edward Burtynsky. For the past twenty-five years, Burtynsky has been exploring the impact of industry on the earth, showing through his photographs landscapes in transition from China, India, Spain, Portugal, Italy, the United States and Canada. Because of his dedication to environmental causes, Edward Burtynsky was awarded the TED Prize in 2004 and in 2006 was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Canada which recognizes a lifetime of outstanding achievement.

You can view Quarries at the Robert Koch Gallery located at 49 Geary St. Suite#550 in San Francisco from September 29th to November 24th, 2007. For more information you can visit their website at www.kochgallery.com.
