Richard Misrach - Destroy This Memory

Destroy This Memory.
Photographs by Richard Misrach.
Aperture, 2010. 140 pp., 70 color illustrations, 15x11½"

I've known about this book for a few months, but was reminded of it today when I came across a brief review on American Suburb X. It's particularly apt for those enrolled in Memory and the Photograph, but a relevant book for any and all interested in photography and current events. (All artist royalties donated to the Make it Right Foundation to help rebuild the Lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans.)

The contest is based around the themes in the exhibition listed above. I was fortunate to see this exhibition at the Tate Modern while in London a few weeks back. They've published an accompanying catalog as well. A worthwhile look indeed.

More information on the exhibition is here.
