HASTED KRAEUTLER is pleased to announce is pleased to announce representation of NICK BRANDT and the release of new work on SEPTEMBER 14, 2011.

"What I am interested in is showing the animals simply in the state of Being. In the state of Being before they are 'no longer are.' Before, in the wild at least, they cease to exist. This world is under terrible threat, all of it caused by us. To me, every creature, human or nonhuman, has an equal right to live, and this feeling, this belief that every animal and I are equal, affects me every time I frame an animal in my camera. The photos are my elegy to these beautiful creatures, to this wrenchingly beautiful world that is steadily, tragically, vanishing before our eyes." - Nick Brandt

Brandt does not use telephoto lenses because he believes that being close to the animals makes a huge difference in his ability to reveal their personality. He writes: "You wouldn't take a portrait of a human being from a hundred feet away and expect to capture their spirit; you'd move in close."

HASTED KRAEUTLER represents ALL works (i.e. images) from the trilogy: ON THIS EARTH; A SHADOW FALLS; and ON THIS EARTH, A SHADOW FALLS.
