Middlescapes

Middlescapes tells the story of an imaginary place, found in reality. A place where at once we can see the speculative and critical of the modern American vernacular. In an inventory of past utopias, materialized in lines of corn, barns, constructed environments, and human forms, we are offered a reflection on the subtle interplay of history caught in an infinite loop – past futures, future pasts. “These are our Middlescapes. Yesterday and tomorrow. Mine, yours, ours.” —————— Phillip Kalantzis Cope uses the camera to draw attention to the subconscious in the everyday. His work has been published, exhibited internationally, written about, and can be found in public and private collections. www.phillipkalantziscope.com —————— Edition: 100 Page Count: 50 Dimensions: 8.5” x 9.5” Format: Spiral Bound ISBN: 978-1-7355008-0-5 —————— PRESS / LINKS: Middlescapes (Website) Steve Harp, Photobook Journal (Review) Capturing American Landscapes with Phillip Kalantzis-Cope, Krannert Art Museum, Champaign, Illinois
