Description

RAYKO PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION
reveals the destruction perpetrated by the oil industry in foreign countries

Crude Reflections: Oil, Ruin and Resistance in the Amazon Rainforest
Cruda Realidad: Petróleo, Devastación y Resistencia en la Amazonía
Photographs by Lou Dematteis and Kayana Szymczak

Curse of the Black Gold: 50 Years of Oil in the Niger Delta
Photographs by Ed Kashi

Come see this important exhibition featuring the work of 3 great documentary photographers who examine the relations between oil, environment, and community in particular oil-producing regions. This show occurs at a moment of worldwide concern over dependency on petroleum and the publication of the two books where these photographs originated couldn’t be more timely.
Meet the photographers who produced these astounding documents of life in these countries tainted by the oil industry. Both books will be for sale at the opening reception!
