Emmet Gowin / essays by Carlos Gollonet and Keith F. Davis ; chronology by Carlos Martín García.
Throughout his prolific career as a photographer, Emmet Gowin has threaded together seemingly disparate subjects - his wife, Edith, and their extended family; American and European landscapes; aerial views of environmental devastation - that reflect his ongoing interest in issues of scale, the impact of the individual, and notions of belonging. This long-awaited survey, "Emmet Gowin" pays tribute to Gowin's remarkable career and his impact on the medium. Following his marriage to Edith Morris in 1964, Gowin began work on a series of images of his extended family. His focus broadened in the 1980s, when he began an exploration of landscape and aerial photography. He has since photographed in the Czech Republic, Italy, Mexico, Japan, and the United States.
