This slideshow from Dwell gives a sneak peek at a new group art exhibit in New York that documents contemporary land use in America.
The exhibit is "Land Use Survey" and it's up until August 15th in the gallery Jen Bekman in New York. The art includes photography, collage, painting and many other media.
"Ranging from views of a single plant to aerial shots of our squirreling highways, Land Use Survey investigates where we are while still managing to suggest where we've been and intimate where we might be heading."
