As revolutionary in form as in content, @earth tells its story in the language of photomontage, one that requires no translation to be understood the world over. It’s also the medium long favored by radical artists like Peter Kennard, whose work demonstrates the important role art can play in political discourse. At turns challenging, unsettling, and poignant, these seven chapters combine new works made with Tarek Salhany with iconic images from throughout Kennard’s 40-year career. Together they create a moving statement about the impending eco-crisis, the arms race, war, and the injustices of the power structures dominating today’s world.

Peter Kennard was born in London in 1949 and is senior tutor in photography at the Royal College of Art, London. His work is known internationally and held in many major collections, including Tate and the V&A. It also crosses over to myriad popular outlets such as newspapers, magazines, books, and television, and even appears on the streets.
