"Having gained access to a variety of labs on five continents, Brooklyn-based artist Stanley Greenberg has taken ravishing, even intimate photographs of the objects they were built to house--the enormous, phenomenally complex machines used to study subatomic particles. Approaching his subject in the spirit of detailed research, Greenberg achieves a quirky but convincing reconciliation of the imperatives of artistic and scientific investigation. . . . In the end, these may best be seen as portraits of some of the most important and valuable apparatus in science."--Art in America (12/20/2011) Having gained access to a variety of labs on five continents, Brooklyn-based artist Stanley Greenberg has taken ravishing, even intimate photographs of the objects they were built to house the enormous, phenomenally complex machines used to study subatomic particles.

The beauty of such machines owes much to design--their cleanliness and wondrous functionality. It owes even more to the sense of mystery that surrounds them. In his book, Time Machines, the photographer Stanley Greenberg goes at least some way in lessening their mystery--and, if anything, enhancing their beauty. A contemporary Sheeler on an epic scale, he traveled 80,000 miles to photograph scientific facilities on five continents. The results are alternately astonishing and astonishingly mundane." --Mark Feeney"Boston Globe" (11/27/2011) To the observer, these machines attempting to delve the secrets of the universe have more in common with the monolith in 2001 than they do with any sort of factory or other industrial-era facility. . . .

Condición: Wie neu. 131 S. Tadellos, nahezu ohne Gebrauchsspuren. - In englischer Sprache. - Oftmals sind technische Anlagen von riesigen Ausmaßen nötig, um den Urknall zu imitieren oder kosmische Strahlungen einzufangen. Der New Yorker Fotograf Stanley Greenberg hat Wissenschaftler in allen Erdteilen bei ihren Experimenten besucht. In Time Machines zeigt er die Höhepunkte seiner abenteuerlichen Exkursionen durch das Reich der Physik. Kalt und sonnenheiß, gigantisch und winzig klein die Natur besteht aus Gegensätzen und regt die Forscher dazu an, in technischen Wunderwerken wie dem Großen Hadronen-Speicherring die Auswirkungen des Urknalls zu messen, das hypothetische Higgs-Boson zu jagen, mit Elementarteilchen wie Myonen, Neutrinos und Quarks physikalische Experimente zu betreiben oder die Gravitationswellen nachzuweisen. Stanley Greenberg besuchte Naturwissenschaftler bei ihren Forschungen in den USA, in Europa, Asien, Südamerika und der Antarktis und begleitete sie unter Tage in kilometerlangen Tunnels, in große Höhen oder eisige Weiten. Dieser Band vereint eine Sammlung an einzigartigen Fotografien, die den Betrachter in die erstaunliche Welt der kerntechnischen Experimente einführt. Entstanden ist ein Werk der Superlative, das die Physik in ihrer ungeheuren Bandbreite und einer neuen Ästhetik zeigt. (Verlagstext).
