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. Kaufman's career path is unique but has always revolved around architectural motives. When he began shooting in the mid 70s his orientation was toward the fine arts. He developed ideas for site-specific photomurals and wall art much before this concept became a mainstream art venue.

A number of artists have led him in this direction, including the Bauhaus and the collaborative media which they pioneered, the 1977 film Powers Of Ten, which depicts the relative scale of the universe in factors of ten, Mike Figgis...
