# Richard Misrach: Notations - Hardcover

by **Richard Misrach** (Photographer), **Darius Himes** (Author)

**A sumptuous, large-format photographic homage to the end of the analog era**

Since 2006, coinciding with his shift away from analog film to working exclusively with a digital camera, Richard Misrach has been exploring the aesthetic possibilities of the negative image. His latest body of work, debuted in this deluxe, oversize (16.75 by 13 inches), landscape-format volume, comprises dazzling, sublime photographs of landscapes and natural scenes--in negative, but using color with great dexterity and nuance.  
Inspired by Ansel Adams' comparison of the photographic negative to a musical score, and John Cage's 1969 book, _Notations_, which compiles music scores as art, Misrach here envisages the photographic image as a score-like negative, teetering on abstraction, that invites a diversity of interpretations. The result is a series of immense beauty unlike any previous Misrach publication.  
**Richard Misrach** (born 1949) is one of the most influential photographers working today. For the past five decades, he has used visually stunning, large-scale color vistas to address human intervention in the natural world. He lives and works in Berkeley, California.
