DESCRIPTION:In October 1991\, immediately following a catastrophic firestorm that struck the Oakland and Berkeley hills\, renowned Bay Area photographer Richard Misrach ventured into the fire zone armed with his eight-by-ten-inch view camera. Working alone amidst the ruins\, he roamed devastated neighborhoods\, recording stark vistas and intimate details of destroyed homes. The resulting images are distinguished by Misrach’s masterful framing of his subjects: the compositions are dramatic without being sensational and incisively reveal a world transformed.\n\nOut of respect for the victims of the fire—which killed twenty-five people\, injured 150 others\, and destroyed nearly three thousand houses and 1\,520 acres—Misrach chose to keep the images in storage\, showing them only rarely. Now\, to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the fire\, BAM/PFA and the Oakland Museum of California each present forty photographs from the series\, including fourteen large-format images whose immense scale invites the viewer to enter into Misrach’s quiet elegies.\n\nThe Oakland-Berkeley Fire Aftermath photographs have shifted in their meaning over the past twenty years\, from journalistic reportage to historical record. Visitors to the museum can participate in this recording of history by contributing their own recollections and reflections to a handmade book in the galleries\, what Misrach calls an “elegy ledger\,” that will join the photographs as part of the community’s collective memory of the 1991 firestorm and its aftermath.
