A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...The exhibition will reveal the depth of his investigation into the human alteration of natural landscapes around the world, showing their present fragility and enduring beauty in equal measure…
...this retrospective exhibition will present over seventy photographs, including many of Burtynsky’s landmark images, some of which have never previously been exhibited, along with three ultra high-resolution murals. The exhibition will also include a visual and narrative timeline of Burtynsky’s creative life. Intentionally scheduled to extend through Climate Week NYC in September 2025, The Great Acceleration will serve not only as an urgent call for action, but will also give visitors the opportunity to appreciate the sublimity that remains in the landscape, while deepening our understanding of the challenges that confront us today..."
