Geoffrey James: Field Notes

About this book

Field Notes is a continuation of James interest in the agrarian landscape, with a special focus on the Waterloo region in densely populated southwestern Ontario. These photographs show us an idyllic pastoral landscape as it is today. Yet urban encroachment and highway traffic jams announce pending change an acknowledgment that we are witnessing a landscape on the cusp of dramatic transformation. The photographs of Geoffrey James have been the subject of numerous exhibitions and featured in several publications. This limited boxed set edition of individual photographs offers a more immediate connection with the artist s work.
