Where it came from
Ursula Schulz-Dornburg traveled to the Tigris river valley in Iraq in 1980, a period defined by the relative stability preceding the Iran-Iraq War. Her project focused on documenting the vanishing architectural vernacular and the stark, rhythmic landscape of the riverbanks. This work emerged as part of her broader interest in the intersection of human civilization and the endurance of geography in areas marked by profound historical significance.
The book was published in 1981 by the Kestner-Gesellschaft in Hannover, serving as an exhibition catalogue for her photography. Schulz-Dornburg’s aesthetic approach is characterized by a precise, detached observation, emphasizing the geometry of ruins and the isolation of historical structures within the desert. It is considered a significant contribution to documentary photography, noted for its archival quality and the contemplative nature of its visual narrative.
