$0.00Arizona Then and Now
Author: Allen Dutton

For the past thirty years, Allen Dutton has been exploring the changing faces of Arizona's deserts, highlands, towns, and cities through the lens of his camera. Dutton's documentary photographs mirror historic images of the state and depict the effects of growth and development on the landscape since 20th century photographers captured Arizona's beauty on film. Dutton took precise steps to achieve the same angles, perspectives and lighting used in the early photographs he collected. The results reveal the consequences of mankind's efforts to tame the stark desserts and rugged mountains of the American West as well as Mother Nature's ability to rebuild and reclaim her own. They also convey the spirit and lore of Arizona's diverse landscape and people.
