As If Without Time: The Nuclear Twilight Zone
In the post‐nuclear explosion test zone of Opytnoe Pole in eastern Kazakhstan, light seems to have beaten darkness. Yet it is an eerie light, bland and cast over a ubiquitously barren landscape devoid of animals and humanity. Contemporary art curator Matthias Bärmann describes the extraordinary and disturbing history of the site that has created the stark vistas and bleached structures in the work of photographer Ursula Schulz‐Dornburg.
