Albert Watson, Timothy White, and David Yarrow round out the group with masterful control of atmosphere. Watson’s images, from the fiery glow of electrical pylons in Las Vegas to the ethereal light of Scotland’s Isle of Skye, show his unmatched ability to sculpt mood from light. White’s early portrait of Björk in Reykjavik situates an icon in a stark landscape, fusing celebrity with elemental force. Yarrow’s cinematic “Skyfall” places a classic British car against dramatic scenery, blurring the line between art, film, and photography.
