Jim Nickelson: Annals of the Former World

Curated by Bruce Brown

August 11 - September 24, 2022

About The Show

Curated by Bruce Brown, Annals of the Former World features the photography of Jim Nickelson.

Annals of the Former World: The Anthropocene Surveys is my testimony to the wonder of the natural world as we found it before irrevocably changing it via climate change, and it serves as my record of this world for my own daughter and future generations, an elegy for a world that will never be the same. With Annals, I hope to increase awareness of what is at risk and to advocate for policies and actions on the part of governments as well as all citizens of the world to mitigate the threat as much as possible.

In this project, I have imagined a future history where photographers, inspired by the Great Surveys of the American West after the Civil War, conducted The Anthropocene Surveys to document what would soon be lost for the benefit of future generations. The handmade artist book is an imagined catalog for a museum exhibition entitled Annals of the Former World in the year 2124 that looks back to our current times and what we had and lost.
