Altitude documents Swiss artist Gian Paolo Minelli's 8,000-kilometer journey across the central Andes in early 2020. Working with a large-format analog camera, Minelli rejects conventional landscape photography, focusing instead on fractured soils, salt flats, lava fields, and traces of vanished water. His images reveal a stark terrain shaped by volcanic forces and extreme aridity, while reflecting on climate change, water scarcity, and the environmental cost of lithium extraction. Presented in black-and-white and surreal color, the photographs are collected in a restrained, carefully crafted book that meditates on geological time, environmental fragility, and the Anthropocene.
