Burtynsky makes large-scale photographs of \u2018manufactured landscapes\u2019 \u2013 quarries, recycling yards, factories, mines, and dams. He photographs civilization\u2019s materials and debris, but in a way people describe as \u201cstunning\u201d or \u201cbeautiful,\u201d and so raises all kinds of questions about ethics and aesthetics without trying to easily answer them.<\/p>\n<p>Shot in Super-16mm film, MANUFACTURED LANDSCAPES extends the narrative streams of Burtynsky\u2019s photographs, allowing us to meditate on our profound impact on the planet and witness both the epicentres of industrial endeavor and the dumping grounds of its waste. What makes the photographs so powerful is his refusal in them to be didactic. We are all implicated here, they tell us: there are no easy answers. The film continues this approach of presenting complexity, without trying to reach simplistic judgments or reductive resolutions. In the process, it tries to shift our consciousness about the world and the way we live in it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trailer<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ie5SJ39LsDg\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ie5SJ39LsDg<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Facebook event<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/375892912436002\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/375892912436002\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<strong>eARTh Forum 2012<\/strong>\u00a0is a day of activities\u00a0organized by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/commonenergyubc.wordpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Common Energy UBC<\/a>\u00a0that seek to create a dialogue around art in the context of sustainable development, and specifically to question how and to what extent art and aesthetics can be vehicles for social and behavioral change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cinema Politica UBC<\/strong>\u00a0is a series showcasing documentaries that critically engage in urgent social justice, environmental, economic and gender issues.
