Photographer Luca Zanier casts a look behind the curtains of the energy industry. His images open the doors to hidden universes, usually inaccessible to the public, highly protected as they are against accidents and terrorism. Abandoned worlds of concrete and steel reveal themselves to us, cathedrals of the modern age, temples of an energy-devouring society that radiate a cold logic. His images of imposing halls, endless corridors, massive floodgates and cryptic signs are as intimidating as they are fascinating. They seem extraterrestrial and surreal at times, as if taken from a science fiction movie; their aesthetics make us forget that we are looking at highly complex industrial systems. Systems that serve as well as threaten us.

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 50'300'000'000'000'000'000 Joule: So hoch ist der Weltenergiebedarf pro Jahr. Um eine solche Menge aus Öl, Kohle, Uran, Wind, Sonne verarbeiten zu können, braucht es eine Maschinerie, die unablässig forscht, erschliesst, bohrt, schürft, fördert, raffiniert, spaltet, verbrennt, speichert und verteilt. Eine gigantische Industrie, ohne die bei uns sprichwörtlich die Lichter ausgingen.Luca Zanier wirft in seinem Buch einen Blick hinter die Fassaden der Energieerzeuger. Er öffnet die Tore zu verborgenen, oft hochgradig gesicherten Universen, zu denen nur wenige Zugang haben. Fremde Welten, die eine kalte Logik ausstrahlen, Kathedralen der Moderne, Tempel einer energiefressenden Gesellschaft. Die Aufnahmen von mächtigen Hallen, endlosen Gängen, wuchtigen Schleusen, Röhren und kryptischen Zeichen wirken einschüchternd und faszinierend zugleic. Es sind Bilder wie von einem anderen Planeten oder aus einem Science-Fiction-Film. Aus der Kunst der Technik wird eine Technik der Kunst. Lediglich die Bildlegenden im Anhang erinnern den Betrachter wieder daran, dass diese Fotografien hochkomplexe Industriesysteme zeigen - Energieanlagen, die uns dienen und gleichzeitig bedrohen.
