| Publisher Description: Art. Photography. Using a large-format view camera, David Stark Wilson elevates the architecturally underappreciated utility buildings that dot California's great Central Valley. In both words and pictures, Wilson captures the disquietingly abandoned landscape that, neither "cultural" nor "natural" has, nonetheless, much of the beauty and consequence of both, though it is, like these buildings, an industrial ruin, still in use. |
