Art Wolfe s definitive opus, Earth Is My Witness represents forty years of expeditionary photography. For the first time, Wolfe presents the three subjects at the heart of his work landscapes, wildlife, and cultures on the edge of extinction in a single masterpiece. His images take us through the world s ecosystems and geographical regions in a vivid display of the fragility and interconnectivity of life on Earth, while simultaneously exploring his evolution as an artist and the techniques he uses to capture the nuances and rhythms of nature. Setting the stage for this fascinating journey is award-winning author and National Geographic Society explorer-in-residence Wade Davis. Together, Davis and Wolfe present a world that borders on the fantastic but is all the more precious for its fragility. At the heart of Wolfe s work is the appeal for environmental, cultural, and wildlife preservation, which he makes here with beautiful, far-reaching precision.

Review:
"I can say without reservation that this is THE book of my career, encompassing nearly forty years of photography and nearly two years of production time. Witness is my diary, my legacy, my life."
--Art Wolfe

"'The earth is my witness, ' he said, and with that, he became the Buddha. His awakening was directly linked to nature, so it's fitting that one of the most prolific and enlightened photographers of our world, Art Wolfe, would choose Buddha's words to caption his life's work. With his new book "Earth Is My Witness," Wolfe has created a magnum opus cataloging his life in photography." --"Outdoor Photographer"

--Art Wolfe
..".this is what Wolfe aptly calls 'my magnum opus.'

Having studied art and anthropology, Wolfe taps both in his work, creating stunning landscapes and animal studies as well as intimate portraits of indigenous peoples."
--"American Photo"
..".one colourful masterpiece after another...his images ignite the imagination while also impacting the viewer on an emotional level.... [and] represent what photographers live for: the moments when the elements come together to offer the chance for an incredible image to be taken."
