- catalog abstract ""This companion volume to the exhibition "New World's Old World," considers the achievements of photographers such as Ansel Adams, Josef Albers, Francois Aubert, Lola Alvarez Bravo, Martin Chambi, Desire Charnay, Linda Connor, Laura Gilpin, Javier Hinojosa, Leandro Katz, Timothy O'Sullivan, Edward Weston, and others. They were at once partners to amateur and professional archaeologists as well as independent interpreters who contributed to the ongoing discovery and rediscovery of prehistoric and pre-Columbian sites in North, Central, and South America. Whether they sought to evoke the past or impose a contemporary aesthetic on its remains, all of the photographers represented in these pages derived inspiration from surviving artifacts of ancient American cultures. These photographs and essays reflect diverse approaches to monuments and archaeological landscapes. The images themselves range from early expeditionary documentation to responses that dispute the historical accuracy of previous photography."--Jacket.".
