On America's most wasteful weekend, #BlackFriday, we look back at the impact of waste to our planet with Kadir van Lohuizen's project Wasteland in the Washington Post. The world generates at least 3.5 million tons of solid waste a day, 10 times the amount a century ago, according to World Bank researchers. On average, Americans throw away their own body weight in trash every month.

Leonard Pongo's long-term project The Uncanny long-term photography project shot in the D.R. Congo will be projected at the International Center of Photography (ICP).
During the day, The Uncanny can be viewed on monitors inside the ICP Museum and during evening hours, images are literally “projected” onto the windows of the ICP Museum; they can be viewed from the sidewalk outside the Museum and are most visible after sunset.
