Summary:

The book by artist and author Hannah Meszaros is a look at the production of contemporary images on one of the most traditional themes in art that of landscape while questioning the notion of this genre as one that has been abandoned by artists, recognized as outdated and romantic, and approached for a long time from technical-pragmatic, ahistorical and apolitical approaches through the exhibition and criticism of existing ways of visualizing nature. Such display modes involve a look not only at what is shown through the image, but also at its opaque surface. This book marks the beginning of the publication of a series dedicated to forensic meteorology, which analyzes the scope of representation techniques and the historical, legal and economic frameworks of what is suspended and circulates in the air, between heaven and earth; in a practical and eminently spatial sense: the art of deploying bodies in this case, chemical in space, the mechanisms that put it into action and the ways in which it is projected, simultaneously exposing the administration of air as an infrastructure technology and the earth and what is on its surface as a potential legal subject and a public sign of order.
