“Topography is Fate — North African Battlefields of World War II” — to be published as a monograph in the Fall, by Kehrer Verlag — considers the landscapes of North Africa that the soldier of World War II was forced to endure. The approach is conceptual, with the photographs of the North African battlefields presented, similar to the New Topographic photographers of previous generations, in an anonymous and neutral tone of voice. The images are taken in daylight, without complexity, portraying the peaceful quietness of the desert or grassland to allow viewers to fill in that negative space with their own visualization of the war.
