Summary
"Brooklyn's Domino Sugar Refinery, once the largest refinery in the world, shut down in 2004 after a long struggle. Most New Yorkers know it only as an icon on the landscape, multiplied on t-shirts and skateboard graphics. This project represents the first time a serious artist has documented the entire site. And it will be the last. Paul Raphaelson, known internationally for his formally intricate urban landscape photographs, was given access to every square foot of the refinery, just weeks before its demolition"--Jacket.
