Description
Sublime photographs of vast winter landscapes featuring a choreography of snowcats be-neath alpine night sky. Along-side them, workers shovelling snow, but also images of piles of snow being carted away. For some ten years now London-based photo artist Melanie Manchot has been exploring the tourist infrastructure of winter sports resorts. Following the invitation of the INN SITU series she spent several weeks in the Vorarlberg municipality of Gaschurn. The photographs for this book illustrate the work done behind the scenes to create the ?mountain experience?. Melanie Manchot?s gaze is by no means investigative or critical of tourism. Her artistic position avoids any form of polemic, preferring instead to consider inquisitively and questioningly a contradictory phenomenon of our civilisation, namely our fascination for unspoilt natural environments and the technology needed to make them accessible to us. The taming of the untamed.
