Ground Up: Photographs of the Ground in the Margins
of Los Angeles
September 19 - November 2, 2003
This new exhibit opening at the Center for Land Use
Interpretation, Los Angeles uses, as a point of
departure, soil maps of Los Angeles County published
by the United States Department of Agriculture. These
maps, created by soil scientists from the National Soil
Survey Center, a division of the USDA, consist of aerial
photos with soil types superimposed. Soil Maps provide
evidence of a great variety of human interventions in
the landscape, from landfills to new construction, from
mining to agriculture.
