EDEN Published in Germany by National Geographic

Eden coverThe German version of Earth Is My Witness, EDEN, has been published by National Geographic:

Art Wolfe ist eine Legende, und dieser großformatige Bildband ist eine unvergleichliche Kollektion seiner schönsten Bilder, wie es sie noch nicht gab. Das Werk des vielleicht berühmtesten lebenden Naturfotografen bringt uns Landschaften, Tiere und indigene Kulturen auf allen Kontinenten näher. Hier sind Momente von einzigartiger Eindringlichkeit und Schönheit zu sehen: der purpurfarbene Himmel über den patagonischen Torres del Paine, Pinguineltern, die sich in perfekter Symmetrie über ihren zwölf Wochen alten Nachwuchs beugen, eine Salzkarawane in der Sahara, ins Meer strömende Lava auf Hawaii oder das rituelle Bad der Sadhus im Ganges. Diese Bilder sind so kraftvoll, dass manche von ihnen zu Ikonen werden könnten oder es schon sind. Dieses Buch ist einen Meilenstein der Naturfotografie – ein Gesamtkunstwerk und Höhepunkt einer bald fünf Jahrzehnte währenden Karriere. Das Buch wurde vom “American Photo Magazine” gerade zum besten Fotobuch des Jahres gekürt.

En véritable explorateur moderne, le photographe Art Wolfe parcourt le globe, ses déserts et ses savanes, ses pôles étincelants, ses montagnes vertigineuses, ses fonds sous-marins fourmillant de vie ou encore ses forêts luxuriantes, pour en rapporter d’incroyables clichés et révéler ainsi la splendeur et la fragilité de ces écosystèmes, et la délicate interconnexion entre les hommes et leur planète.
Grâce à plus de 450 photographies en grande partie inédites et au récit d’Art Wolfe qui livre ses souvenirs et des anecdotes, cet ouvrage d’exception célèbre la Terre et ses merveilles dans un vibrant plaidoyer pour sa préservation.
