Text engl. - Selected as one of the best photography books of 2000 by Andy Grundberg for the New York Times. Out-of-print. Scarce. - From the publisher: "The photographs in The Sky Book comprise Richard Misrach's most recent, most ambitious series, which transposes his narrative from the land to the sky. The images mediate between document and abstraction, reality and metaphor. Drawing on photography's documentary tradition, Misrach contextualizes each photograph with respect to time and place, rooting the celestial realm firmly in the earthly and political one."
