Reviews

Those old enough to have grown up in the shadows of factories have seen those same factories become either ruins or condos. O'Boyle's black-and-white photos capture both the grittiness and the poignancy of such disparate--yet oddly similar--sites as the Eastern State Penitentiary, the Bethlehem Steel Works, and the bizarrely grand arsenal on Bannerman's Island near Cold Spring, NY. </p>--Frank Wilson, <em>Philadelphia Inquirer</em></p>
