@earth
@earth book by Peter Kennard
@earth contains no
words -it tells its story in the universal language of
photomontage, long the favoured medium of radical artists. Peter Kennard
is one such, whose work has consistently questioned power structures
and injustice, from his anti-nuclear works of the 1980s to his powerful
works in response to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. @earth is a
photo-essay in seven chapters, combining new works, made together with
Tarek Salhany, with iconic images from throughout Kennard's 40-year
career. In turn challenging, shocking, unsettling and poignant, @earth
makes a powerful statement about the impending eco-crisis, the arms race
and the injustices of the power structures dominating today's world.
