"Earth
From Above" is the result of the aerial photographer Yann
Arthus-Bertrand's five-year airborne odyssey across six continents. It's a
spectacular presentation of large scale photographs of astonishing natural
landscapes. Every stunning aerial photograph tells a story about our changing
planet.
Yann Arthus-Bertrand, born 1946 in France, has become globally famous as a
nature photographer. During his career he discovered the beauty of the world as
seen from above when he became a hot air balloon pilot and began experimenting
with aerial photography. Besides photography, Yann passionately engages in
non-profit projects for different organizations.
By 2005, Arthus-Bertrand created the association GoodPlanet. This international
NGO develops numerous projects whose shared objective is to educate about
sustainable development and request individuals across every background,
culture and border to think beyond the development of our planet and, instead,
toward the future of all of its inhabitants.
Earth From Above, a 4-episode, 8-hour TV series then launched in 2007 and
renewed for 2008, prompting Arthus-Bertrand to begin filming of Home, a
documentary-style feature film about the state of our planet and challenges
facing us to protect it. Its simultaneous worldwide release is scheduled for
June 5th, 2009 - World Environment Day.
Arthus-Bertrand was a member of the Academy of Fine Arts of the Institute of
France in 2006. He is a knight of the Legion of Honour, an Officer of the Order
of Agricultural Merit, and an Officer of the National Order of Merit. In 2007,
Arthus-Bertrand helped Al Gore present his Academy Award-winning film, An
Inconvenient Truth, to the French Parliament.
As an artist, documentarian and advocate, Yann Arthus-Bertrand demonstrates the
power of images to convey universal emotion, understanding and shared
appreciation for our planet and its inhabitants. For this reason, he is
recognized worldwide as one of the most important and respected
environmentalists of our time.
