Since the publication of Richard Misrach's bestselling and critically acclaimed publication On the Beach, he has continued to photograph at the same location, building a body of work that has been exhibited as On the Beach 2.0―a reference to the technological and optical developments that have made the intensely detailed, exquisitely rendered depictions possible. The Mysterious Opacity of Other Beings focuses less on the abstraction of water, sand and mote-sized figures, instead honing in on the gestures and expressions of bathers adrift in the ocean. Misrach has rarely ventured into portraiture; this work is his first to focus exclusively on the human figure. Each photograph features one or more individuals crisply rendered from a distance, as they seem to levitate among turquoise waves, isolated from everything save the shifting patterns of the ocean. There is ambiguity and a sense of the uncanny in the figures suspended in the water: are they approaching the shore or moving away from it? Each image is presented both as full frame and as a series of enlarged details that enable the viewer to linger on each individual's surrender of their body to the sea.Richard Misrach (born 1949) is one of the most influential color photographers of his generation. His work is held in the collections of over 50 major institutions, including The Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum of American Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC. The exhibit On the Beach traveled to several museums in 2004, including The Art Institute of Chicago; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; and National Gallery of Art. In 2012 Misrach collaborated with Aperture to launch a book and exhibition titled Petrochemical America, a series of photographs that explores the health and environmental issues surrounding the Mississippi River industrial corridor, otherwise known as "Cancer Alley." Images from the project are featured in the Emmy-nominated title sequence of HBO's True Detective.

Review Misrach's forthcoming book, The Mysterious Opacity of Other Beings (Aperture, $80), presents "people pictures" in the form of swimmers interacting in the water, a seaward extension of his "On the Beach" series (a few of which are in this show). But much of his environmental imagery over the years has been unpeopled. The work in "Being(s)" seems to border the two, with the humans abstracted but recognizable, often alone. (Jack Crager American Photo)Though lionized for his poignantly beautiful―often times painfully so―reflections of the American West, large scale color format pioneer, photographer Richard Misrach, turns his gaze to the sea for a second time in his new oversized visual monograph, “The Mysterious Opacity of Other Beings.” A follow-up to his best-selling “On the Beach,” the new book of photography continues where its predecessor left off, exploring the intermittently murky relationship between us that walk on land and the mysterious sea. but where his first release circles on the abstraction of water, the new publication meditates on the lost quiet of humans actually adrift in the ocean: floating, breathing, beating. Investigating this quiet portraiture of intimate surrender, Misrach dives in head first this May. (Joshua Glass Essential Homme)

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. And who doesn't like a good mystery By R. Russeth Lovely book. A bit larger than necessary but smaller may not conveyed Misrach's point. The photographs are all of people floating in the ocean, alone or with others. Isolation, loneliness and yet at the same time, life despite the odds in this vast universe. The book is not a little mysterious. And who doesn't like a good mystery?
