Images of Change
An archaeology of England's contemporary landscape Product Code: 51233Authors: Sefryn Penrose with contributors with foreword by Antony Gormley
Motorways, airports, tower blocks, power stations, windfarms; TV and the internet, easy travel and shrinking distances; business parks, starter homes, and vast shopping and leisure complexes. All of these helped define the later 20th-century world and their material remains remind us of the major changes brought about through innovation and rapidly developming technology.
Images of Change highlights for perhaps the first time the impact the developments of the last century have had on the landscape and gives us a new angle on the industrial, military, domestic and agricultural influences at work around us. We recognise and celebrate the process of landscape change for earlier periods - the 20th century should be no different.
