Elliott Kaufman Abstract Photography

American

Elliott Kaufman, is acclaimed for a series titled Abandoned in which he gained entry into various historical sites to photograph crumbling interiors.

He developed ideas for site-specific photomurals and wall art much before this concept became a mainstream art venue.
