About Waterfall
We are lucky, as waters of the world are dirtied and diverted, that John Pfahl is here to document them and remind us of what we have and what we are losing. Susan Sontag has asserted that all photographs are elegiac, memento mori, testifying “to time’s relentless melt.” Even as they memorialize, they remind us of our own, and the earth’s, mutability. – From the introduction
This gorgeous new artist’s book comprises 23 stunning colour photographs of North American waterfalls. A subject close to the artist’s heart and one that he has documented over the past two decades. Waterfall is an accordion-bound book. Printed in process colour on matt art paper and hardbound and slipcased in blue and natural cloth. Highly collectable. Printed in a first edition of 1000 copies, it is a welcome addition to the literature available on both the artist and his subject matter.
