First edition of Above Zero by Olaf Otto Becker (2009). First impression. Medium format hardback in near fine condition. Please see photos for reference. About Becker's photographi c studies reveal the overwhelming beauty of this ice-covered landscape while at the same time documenting the existential threat to it, for even here, in this completely uninhabited region, human influences have fatal consequences - dust and soot in the air form black, crusty deposits that, in conjunction with global warming, accelerate the melting of the ice sheets - with no doubt unavoidable catastrophic results.
