American photographer Mark Ruwedel (b. 1954), known for his majestic Westward series of residual landforms created by expanding railroad lines across the nineteenth-century American West, turns his discerning eye to the last western frontier--the American desert. \u003ci\u003eDog Houses, \u003c\/i\u003e part of Ruwedel's larger Desert House series, takes readers to a place where signs of human activity in the landscape are much more recent and revealing. Like their human counterparts, the doghouses in these photographs constitute an inventory of an iconic yet surprisingly flexible form. Often made from discarded material left over from the construction of human houses, the funny and sometimes haunting structures evoke the asymmetrical yet reciprocal relationship between owner and animal. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 72\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.4 x 10.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 31, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51772791849248,"sku":"9780985995898","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/d3b5d2c98893fba5cb73929a074e158a.webp?v=1780414428","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/mark-ruwedel-dog-houses-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
