	<description><![CDATA[Not to be fussy, as this is a good piece of writing on the New Topographics, but the Joel Sternfeld image isn't a New Topographics image used for the Photographs of a Man-altered Landscape as Stephen Shore was the only one to be exhibited in colour..]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Nice piece, and a lovely idea to supplement the New Topographics show with a complimentary exhibition from the CCP's collection. However, up until your last paragraph, you attend only to the subject matter of the New Topographics photographers (altered landscape, signs of man, etc.). Only at the end do you briefly mention the most interesting and influential aspect of their work: the style of "stylelessness." Isn't this really the defining thing, along with a rejection of the metaphysical and metaphorical in favor of a relentless commitment to *description*? And if so, aren't some of the pictures you've selected as foreshadowing the New Topographics a bit out of place? I'm thinking of those by Paul Strand, for example, and the one by Caponigro.]]></description>
