Shot from a perspective that is at once detached and awe-inspiring, Andreas Gursky’s landscape photographs offer breathtaking views of man-made and natural wonders from around the world. These richly detailed images are the subject of a new exhibition now on view at Long Island’s Parrish Art Museum, titled “Andreas Gursky: Landscapes.” Comprising 19 large-and small-scale photographs, this presentation marks the first time many of these images are being shown in the U.S.
Dating from the 1980s to the present, Gursky’s photos transport viewers to sites ranging from the snow-covered Swiss Alpine valley Engadin to the Rhine River to Korea’s capital city. “Landscapes” is the German artist’s first American museum solo exhibition in more than a decade.
On view through October 18 at the Parrish Art Museum, 279 Montauk Highway, Water Mill, New York; parrishart.org
