Candlestick Point

Description:

The images in Candlestick Point show Californian fallow land, where piles of rubble and waste accumulate in the middle of the prairie. Baltz's photographic record of the development at Candlestick Point combines sociological and analytical rigour and is strongly oriented towards the tradition of land art.
