Initially, she used the medium to map and understand her new city. In less than two years' time, she had switched to a 4x5 view camera, whose format would define her artistic style in the following decades. Gutsche's work often explores personal relationships, urban landscapes, architecture and cultural values. In her words, \"Whether I photograph people or uninhabited spaces, I attempt to map the inner landscape of emotions as well as describe specific places.\" Her notable series include \u003ci\u003eMilton Park\u003c\/i\u003e (1970-73), which aimed to save a threatened Montreal neighborhood; \u003ci\u003eConvents\u003c\/i\u003e (1990-2009), a deep dive into communities of nuns in Quebec; and documentation of the construction of Montreal's famed Canadian Centre for Architecture, founded by Phyllis Lambert.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clara Gutsche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/02\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.20h x 10.00w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783969994528","brand":"Steidl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45133436944521,"sku":"9783969994528","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_1d76ba00-7d50-4012-a0bb-dca6ce014a8f.jpg?v=1767678697","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/clara-gutsche-9783969994528","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
