..".Entrancing photographs of multi-colored mudhills in New
Mexico, the red rock formations of Canyonlands National Park in
Utah, and canyons, cliffs, and desert lands throughout California,
Nevada, and Arizona. Strom has been photographing the deserts of
the American Southwest for thirty years, creating arresting images
of forbidding, breathtaking landscapes containing geological
formations and striking colors like nothing else on earth... His
book of photographs would make the perfect gift for anyone who
loves the landscape of the West."--"New West Magazine"
Stephen Strom has photographed in the southwestern desert lands
of the United States for more than 20 years and this book brings
together, for the first time, a selection of his most powerful and
memorable images.
Strom brings to this landscape the sensibilities of an
astronomer who has lived in the desert for almost two decades. His
photographs capture a land shaped both by the millennial forces of
prehistory and also by yesterday's cloudburst. His images have the
power to compress vast desert spaces in an illusion of intimacy and
comprehension, presenting undulations of colour and form which
appear reimagined in a light that at once penetrates and
sculpts.
Published in 2009, the book Earth Forms, with essays by Gregory
McNamee and Albert Stewart, is the first fine art quality monograph
of Stephen's photographs. To assure images of the highest quality,
Stephen was present at EBS in Verona, Italy when the final proofs
were made. He and Dewi Lewis, the publisher, certified the
adjustments made before each page was printed.
