monograph,Gullichsen Kairamo Vormala(Skira,2000).“You have more liability in prac-tice,whereas for a critic there are seldom any consequences.Criticismand practice are like fiction and reality,\"says Brandolini.This month,hewrites about the Ruhr River Valley for our Culture section(page 75).  \n\"My mother was a landscape painter and my father was a historian,\"says photographer Chris Faust.\"Landscape photography felt like aninteresting blend of those aspects of culture.\"Faust began taking pic-tures while he was a graduate student in biology.He has receivedawards from the Graham Foundation and the American Society ofLandscape Architects,among other organizations,and has workedextensively with landscape architects as wellas Landscape Architecturemagazine.For this issue,Faust shot Loom's Woman Suffrage Memorialin St.Paul,Minnesota(page 126).  \nPreviously editorial director of Progressive Architecture(until it foldedin 1996),Architecture's contributing editor Thomas Fisher

photography.\"But thisdidn't stop Miller,who began photographing natural landforms in theColorado Plateau-many of which make up his book,Desert Skin(University of Utah Press,1994).\"I gradually began to understand theinfluence of the landscape on man-made forms.\"To further study thisidea,Miller traveled to Egypt to find parallels between the natural archi-tecture of the desertand ancient man-made structures there.Photographsfrom this series appear as a photo essay in this issue(page 112).  \nPaolo Polledricame to the United States from Italy to attend graduateschool at Berkeley,in the era of
