PAUL RAPHAELSON: SWEET RUIN
DECEMBER 8, 2017 – JANUARY 14, 2018

OPENING RECEPTION WTIH THE ARTIST: FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 7-9PM

“Brooklyn’s Domino Sugar Refinery, once the largest in the world, shut down in 2004 after a long struggle. Most New Yorkers know this 135-year-old industrial relic only as an icon on the skyline, multiplied on T-shirts and skateboard graphics. In 2013, Paul Raphaelson, known for his formally intricate urban landscape photographs, looked past the facade. He received permission from the developers of the Domino site to explore every square foot of the refinery just weeks before its gutting and demolition. Raphaelson is the last photographer given access to the factory.”
