Photographs by Edward Burtynsky from the Collection of the Whyte Museum of the Rockies

Breathtakingly beautiful and horrifying, dramatic and dispassionate, Edward Burtynsky’s large format photographs showing the effect of human industry upon the land continue to touch people around the world. Burtynsky makes vivid the impact of our use of natural resources in his impeccably-crafted images of Alberta oil sands, oil fields, homesteads, railcuts and mining.

Human Landscape
