For Walter De Maria, hurricanes, floods, and sandstorms -- natural disasters -- are the highest form of art possible to experience. Through such monumental works as The Lightening Field, a permanent installation in New Mexico which fuses the natural phenomena of lighting with the artistic process, De Maria has had a lasting and decisive impact on the orientation of art since the 1960s. This unique artist's book, one of only a few publications on this seminal artist, intermingles De Maria's sculptures with the city of Milan through a portfolio of black-and-white photographs by Nanda Lanfranco, produced in close collaboration with the artist, which reveal various crossroads of this Italian metropolis.
