The Nature of Nature celebrates 40 years of production from one of Canada's leading photographers. Firmly located within the North American documentary genre, Holownia's unique practice, using predominantly analogue technologies, merges high craft with prolonged inquiry. This book includes a critical analysis of his work by Sarah Filmore, David Diviney, and Peter Sanger as well as 161 stochastic reproductions in colour and black & white of Holownia's contact prints.

Thaddeus Holownia is emeritus professor of fine arts at Mount Allison University, an elected fellow of the Royalty Society of Canada, and a winner of the Strathbutler Award. His photographs have been exhibited at galleries throughout North America and Europe.

Sarah Fillmore is Chief Curator and Deputy Director of Programming at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia.

David Diviney is curator of exhibitions at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia in Halifax.
