Lewis Baltz

Lewis Baltz (1945-2014) was an American photographer and a key figure in the New Topographics movement, which emerged in the 1970s and focused on the urban and suburban landscapes of America. He was born in Newport Beach, California and later studied at the San Francisco Art Institute.

Baltz's photographs often featured bleak and unpopulated landscapes, including industrial sites, parking lots, and suburban housing developments. His work was characterized by its cool, detached style, which emphasized the banality and alienation of modern life.
