After us the Deluge: The Human Consequences of Rising Sea Levels - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Kadir van Lohuizen (Netherlands, 1963) has documented various conflicts in Africa and elsewhere in the world, but he is best known for his long-term photo projects: the seven world rivers, the consequences of rising sea levels, the diamond industry, migration in North and South America, and the way six megacities deal with waste. He has won numerous prizes and awards in photojournalism and is co-founder of the photo agency NOOR Images. In 2000 and 2002 he was a member of the jury for the World Press Photo competition, and until recently he was a member of the Supervisory Board of the World Press Photo Foundation. Van Lohuizen lectures, teaches, and lives in Amsterdam.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In After Us the Deluge, photographer Kadir van Lohuizen shows the impact on communities of rising sea levels. He travelled to Greenland, USA, Bangladesh, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Panama and the Pacific. There, he captured the havoc caused by global warming.

The result is both a period piece and photo book, as disturbing as it is aesthetically impressive. The book is richly illustrated with maps and graphs.
