The images bear testimony to humankind’s enormous intervention in the environment. This clash between civilization and nature is a recurrent theme in almost all of Schink’s work: be it telephone cables that appear in an apparently virgin Vietnamese jungle, or utility poles and wires strung across Niigata’s snowy landscape. Even if human beings, as the perpetrators of these interventions, are never directly seen in these photographs, the scars they have left behind make them ever-present. Yet Schink does not pass judgment: he simply documents the scenes from the perspective of a remote observer.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eExhibition schedule: Kunstmuseum Dieselkraftwerk, Cottbus, January 1–March 27, 2011 | Neues Museum, Weimar, April 8–June 13, 2011 | Galerie Rothamel, Erfurt, September 4–July 2, 2011 |\u0026nbsp;Angermuseum, Erfurt, April 9–June 5, 2011\u0026nbsp;| Museum Küppersmühle, Duisburg, July 1–October 3, 2011 | Galerie Rothamel, Franfurt, September 2–October 22, 2011\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874833461512,"sku":"9783775728263","price":58.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775728263_c7c6b9f3-867c-41c4-ac92-abfd8cbd99d8.jpg?v=1744096554","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16611-hanschristian-schink","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
