Gus Foster Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

In 1972, while driving through California, Gus Foster used his camera to document his journey, influencing his later work with panoramic cameras and his exploration of time. Inspired by pioneer photographers like Carleton Watkins and Timothy O’Sullivan, who captured the grandeur of the Rocky Mountains, Foster dedicated fifteen years to photographing this region, traversing from Canada to Mexico and climbing high summits with extensive equipment. This retrospective monograph showcases his forty-five-year journey in creating panoramic images, highlighting his travels across North America and beyond. His subjects range from Alaskan glaciers to Times Square, encompassing high mountain terrains, urban landscapes, and vast agricultural areas filled with crops like wheat and corn. The collection also features Time Photographs taken with a portable panoramic camera, capturing over 1000 degrees in a single image, effectively recording multiple moments in time. Foster's impressive prints, some measuring up to sixteen feet, provide a unique perspective. As Evan M. Maurer notes, the 360-degree panoramas allow viewers to see everything around them, creating an immersive experience akin to having "eyes in the back of your head."
