The AERIAL VIEWS VERSILIA PHOTO SERIES:

Aerial Photographs of the coastal area around the city of Viareggio in northern Tuscany, Italy - which is called Versilia turistica.
The quantity of the different sun-umbrella formations on these spacious beach areas capture the massive dimensions of mass tourism, and could also remind on electric switching circuits or algorithmic expositions.

THE ARTIST:

Since 2010, Bernhard Lang is capturing the earth's surface in his photo series "Aerial Views".
To take these pictures from the heavens, Lang takes off in helicopters and small aircrafts.

Lang's work has been published in Times Magazin, The Washington Post, The Guardian, CNN, Wired, National Geographic Magazin, Corriere della Sera, Zeit Magazin, art magazine, mare, FAZ, Stern, Spiegel, SZ,  ... and and has produced artistic content for Apple, Aston Martin, Akris, Getty Images Creative, Sundek, Deutsche Welle TV Channel, …

He's aiming to find interesting looking patterns and structures on the surface of our planet. He also takes particular interest in capturing images, that show the impact of human’s activities on the nature and environment.
Lang’s images free us from the bonds of gravity and allow us to take a more detached look at the world and our effect on it — both good and bad. It is this duality that lang is most interested in investigating through his work, the strange balance between beauty and destruction, and the ongoing struggle for symbiosis between human kind and the earth we inhabit.

Lang’s work has been shown in several exhibitions worldwide, and his exclusively limited, museum quality Fine Art Prints are held in corporate and private collections.
