new book by Richard Misrach
From aperture.org: "Petrochemical America features Richard Misrach’s haunting
photographic record of Louisiana’s Chemical Corridor, accompanied by
landscape architect Kate Orff’s Ecological Atlas—a series of
“throughlines,” speculative drawings developed through research and
mapping of data from the region. Their joint effort depicts and unpacks
the complex cultural, physical, and economic ecologies along 150 miles
of the Mississippi River from Baton Rouge to New Orleans, an area of
intense chemical production that first garnered public attention as
“Cancer Alley” when unusual occurrences of cancer were discovered in the
region."
