The Great Acceleration is Edward Burtynsky’s first major institutional exhibition in NYC in over two decades, featuring 70+ photographs and large-scale murals. Curated by David Campany, it highlights Burtynsky’s decades-long investigation into humanity’s impact on the planet—from mines and oil fields to farmlands and waterways. Presented during Climate Week 2025, the exhibition invites reflection on environmental urgency while revealing the intricate, enduring beauty of altered landscapes.
