Aquariums provide us with a seductive window to the magic and mystery of the aquatic world. Acclaimed landscape photographers Diane Cook & Len Jenshel take a deep look at this world in these beautiful, surprising, and humorous photographs. Through their remarkable vision we are transported to a surreal and artificial realm where fish and humans meet. In Aquarium we are presented not only with the artist's striking individual visions but also, in pairings of Cook's black-and-white imagery and Jenshel's color, we witness a unique, artistic dialogue.
Working for more than three years to complete their ambitious project, the photographers traveled to twenty-five public aquariums around the world. Exquisitely printed in the book are seventy-two photographs capturing the submerged dioramas of sixteen aquariums in North America, as well as others from Europe, the Caribbean, and Japan.
