Summary:
Shaun O'Boyle has been photographing ruined landscapes and buildings in the Mid-Atlantic region, for more than twenty-five years. This collection of photographs represents some of his best work. Modern Ruins begins with an introduction by architectural essayist Geoff Manaugh, who offers insight into why people are so drawn to ruins and what they might mean to us in a larger psychological sense. Brief essays by noted historians Curt Miner, Kenneth Warren, Kenneth Wolensky, and Thomas Lewis offer social and historical contexts for the sites documented in the book. It concludes with an interview with the photographer that touches on his fascination with ruins and explores some of the processes and procedures he uses to document them.
