Series: Parks

Parks 2—our third title with photographer Brian Kelley and the second volume in this series—is a new collection of over 300 United States national park maps, ephemera, and brochures spanning over 100 years.

Part of an ongoing project, Kelley collects oft-overlooked objects within the Parks Service. The book showcases nearly a century of art, cartography, and printed materials in a compelling visual history of America's national parks and evolving graphic design styles culminating in Massimo Vignelli's iconic design system, the Unigrid.

TEXTS – Chris Burkard – Alex Honnold – Brian Kelley – Forrest Shearer – Ashima Shiraishi – Leah Thomas/ Lilly Smith PLATES INDEX

Brian Kelley (b. 1988) moved to New York City in 2006 and received his BFA in photography from the School of Visual Arts. Kelley's work resists the hurried march of consumerist modernity, seeking to halt the cyclical emptiness of our material lives to capture a sense of culture at ""the end of history."" A mixed-media approach has allowed him to pursue artwork with disruptive capacities—exhaustive research, slow & meditative composition, and the repurposing of photographic mediums—all employed to reveal the artifacts left behind by the precession of simulacra. Kelley was born in Horseheads, NY and currently lives in Lumberland, NY.
