showcases, in exhibition and book form, the work of Thomas Joshua Cooper (b. 1946) and his project to chart photographically the edges and extremities of the Atlantic Basin. Cooper's large black-and-white prints, often abstract and tied tenuously to a specific location by words, are visually arresting and intensely geographical. This essay points to Cooper's work as an imaginative geography that inspires a deep rethinking about how we encounter land, sea, and sky; map space; contemplate emptiness; label extremity; and assign meaning to place.

神奇之地：托马斯·约书亚·库珀的摄影地理想象力


以展览和书籍的形式展示托马斯·约书亚·库珀（Thomas Joshua Cooper，生于 1946 年）的作品以及他用摄影方式绘制大西洋盆地边缘和末端的项目。库珀的大型黑白版画通常是抽象的，并通过文字与特定地点紧密相连，具有视觉吸引力和强烈的地理性。这篇文章指出库珀的作品是一本富有想象力的地理学著作，它激发了人们对我们如何遇到陆地、海洋和天空的深刻反思；地图空间；思惟空性；标记肢体；并为地点赋予意义。
