Andrew Moore at Yancey Richardson

After his work with Cuba's crumbling architecture, Moore's large-scale photographs of Detroit in ruins are a lot less romantic but just as fascinating.

The pictures are in color, but the burned-out, dilapidated state of many of these sites renders them virtually black, white, and dingy gray. In one abandoned dry dock, someone has set up shelter under plastic sheeting that falls from an upper floor like a waterfall. The shattered, hulking interiors of the Rouge, the legendary Ford factory, and two ornate movie theatres are sad reminders of grander or at least more optimistic times.
