Description: For one week in August the Burning Man Festival in Nevadas Black Rock Desert brings people together in a spirit of self-reliance and creativity. Art has become the defining feature of Burning Man, as the festival continues to be a testing ground for a growing circle of artists seeking engaged audiences. A. Leo Nash has been creating a photographic document of this work, and in his photographs we see the wellspring of a new art movement.
