Lewis Baltz was a photographer who gained importance in the New Topographics movement of the late 19070s. His work was featured in a New York exhibition in 1975 called "New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape." The exhibition epitomized a key movement in American landscape photography, and depicted urban or suburban realities. Baltz's images search for "beauty in desolation and destruction." I enjoy the black and white, simplicity, and composition of Baltz's work, and how he is able to capture different feelings with such simple images.
