  • Landscape: Mediated Views Bibliography

    Landscape: Mediated Views is an exhibition exploring landscape as a cultural construct and as mediated by imaging technologies; it cites Simon Schama and the 18th-century Claude glass and traces a shift from traditional painting to portable black-and-white video in the late 1960s and onward to contemporary digital technologies. The artists’ tapes document geographic, geological, cultural, narrative, interior and policy-related landscapes and consider how portability, camera and non-camera video processes, image processing and media systems alter representation, land use and perceptions over the nearly thirty-year history of the medium.
