BURTYNSKY: EXTRACTION/ABSTRACTION

Saatchi Gallery, London
14 February - 6 May 2024

The exhibition, opening to the public on 14 February 2024, marks the largest exhibition ever mounted in the 40+ year career of world-renowned photographic artist, Edward Burtynsky, who has dedicated his practice to bearing witness to the impact of human industry on the planet.

Curated by Marc Mayer, former Director of the National Gallery of Canada and Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal, the exhibition will feature 94 of Burtynsky's large-format photographs as well as 13 high-resolution murals, and an augmented reality (AR) experience.

A never-before-seen element in this exhibition, referred to as the "Process Archive," will also showcase Burtynsky's navigation through each of the technological shifts in the photographic medium that have occurred over recent decades.

The exhibition will reveal Burtynsky's life-long observation of humanity's incursion into the natural world, and the environmental consequences of industrial processes.
