New LP from Erik Friedlander with Deluxe Poster
Hi Everyone,
Photographer Mitch Epstein and I have collaborated on a new limited
edition LP entitled, American Power. The 500 hand-numbered albums are
signed by both of us, and feature 6 new solo cello compositions,
gate-fold artwork by Mitch Epstein, as well as a two-sided, 24x36 inch
poster of Epstein’s photographs and my handwritten score. Purchase of
the 180-gram, audiophile LP is accompanied by a free digital download
of the music. You can get your copy here

Here is some background of the project:
In 2011, Mitch Epstein was awarded the Prix Pictet Photography Prize,
and was asked to create a presentation to celebrate the award in
Arles, France, in early July. In a Roman amphitheater in the center of
Arles, Friedlander and Epstein collaborated on a presentation of
music, narration, and photography. The success of the evening led to
the creation of this beautiful LP, a special chronicle of their
performance in Arles.
Mitch Epstein began work on American Power in 2003. The project was a
five-year long, twenty-five state investigation of energy production
and consumption in the United States, and how they had become manifest
in the country’s landscape and culture. The book was published in 2009
(Steidl).
