'Altered Earth' installation by Doug Aitken

To create his latest series of video projections, Californian multimedia artist <a href="http://www.dougaitkenworkshop.com/" target="_blank" style="color:#CC0000">Doug Aitken</a> visited the Camargue region of southern France, where he spent months capturing the reedy lagoons, splendid fauna and empty panoramas of a geography that's been settled since Roman times yet scarcely developed since. The snippets of life are being shown in an exhibition titled <a href="http://www.doug-aitken-arles.com/" target="_blank" style="color:#CC0000">'Altered Earth: Arles, city of moving images'</a> at the Parc des Ateliers in historic Arles. In the park's hangar-like Grande Halle, Aitken's enormous cinematic screens create what he calls 'an almost holographic view of the physical landscape'. Watch the exhibition in action.
