This is one (1) of four (4) large-scale limited-edition photographs of the Airbus A380 creation by Mark Power that we have for sale.
Airbus commissioned Mark Power to document the story behind the creation and construction of the biggest passenger plane ever built, the Airbus A380.
Mark Power’s work illuminates the diverse sites of production and the various stages of construction. Because of its extraordinary size, Airbus first had to construct the infrastructure, such as the building to house the final assembly line in Toulouse, factories throughout Europe and extensive transportation networks, including a specially built ship.
Thus, these photographs portray the process with clarity and visual adeptness to give the viewer a glimpse into the infrastructure, the inception, and construction of the plane itself, and finally, its first flight.
The assignment culminated in many internal exhibitions to celebrate each important step of the A380’s development, as well as three shows at the photography festival Printemps de Septembre in Toulouse.
Mark Power is a British photographer. He is a member of Magnum Photos and Professor of Photography in The Faculty of Arts and Architecture at the University of Brighton. Power has been awarded the Terence Donovan Award and an Honorary Fellowship from the Royal Photographic Society.
Power was born in Harpenden, England, in 1959. He studied Fine Art at Brighton Polytechnic (1978–1981), and then travelled extensively, discovering a love for photography along the way. Upon his return, he worked as a freelance for several UK publications and charities.
Power happened to be in Berlin on 9 November 1989 and photographed the fall of the Berlin Wall. He later published the photographs in the book Die Mauer ist Weg! (2014).
