Sobre este artículo
Gottingen: Steidl, , 2008. Brossura (wrappers). Perfetto (Mint). Estratti di giornali. Fotografie a colori di Joel Sternfeld. 16mo (cm 15x22,5). pp. 112. Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). “Future generations are going to wonder about us, the inhabitants of the Earth when the climate began to change. If seas are rising and at the same time drinking water is scarce, they are going to want to know what scientific evidence was before us and what we did in response to it. It is difficult to imagine a time in the past without an image, so I went to Montreal in 2005 to photograph the participants in the eleventh United Nations conference on climate change.” The resulting 53 color portraits of participants at the conference form the heart of this book. The mezzo busto close-ups fit within a tradition of portraiture that dates back to the Renaissance but the anxiety on each face seems like something only modernity and the advent of ecological collapse could produce. A text culled from newspapers and journals and presented in the form of wire service transmissions provides a chronology of climate change as it has occured in the past 20 years. By the title When It Changed Sternfeld may be referrring to a more hopeful turning point in the human-earth relationship. "Le generazioni future si chiederanno di noi, abitanti della Terra, quando il clima ha cominciato a cambiare. Se i mari si alzano e allo stesso tempo l'acqua potabile scarseggia, vorranno sapere quali prove scientifiche c'erano e cosa abbiamo fatto in risposta ad esse. È difficile immaginare un momento del passato senza un'immagine, così sono andato a Montreal nel 2005 per fotografare i partecipanti all'undicesima conferenza delle Nazioni Unite sul cambiamento climatico". I risultanti 53 ritratti a colori dei partecipanti alla conferenza costituiscono il cuore di questo libro. I primi piani a mezzo busto si inseriscono in una tradizione di ritrattistica che risale al Rinascimento, ma l'ansia su ogni volto sembra qualcosa che solo la modernità e l'avvento del collasso ecologico potevano produrre. Un testo raccolto da giornali e riviste e presentato sotto forma di trasmissioni radiofoniche fornisce una cronologia del cambiamento climatico come si è verificato negli ultimi 20 anni.
