Abandoned Places

by Van Henk Rensbergen

Published for the first time: 4/1/2008

208 pages, Hardcover

Genres: Architecture, Photography, Art, Travel, Nonfiction

The idea behind Henk van Rensbergen's expeditions is simple: explore the urban jungle. Why travel to far-off natural jungles, when there are far more interesting places in your own neighbourhood - abandoned places, just waiting to be explored. Van Rensbergen sets off, looking for abandoned hospitals, overgrown industrial complexes, or urban palaces, ravaged by the driving rain, overgrown with weeds, decorated with grafitti. The resulting photographs are unequalled - beauty meets decay.
