This exhibition contained the spectacular architectural photographs by Maxwell MacKenzie. More than 70 images are featured, focusing on the abandoned ruins of tobacco barns erected in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in America. The project photographs old tobacco barns before their inevitable abandonment and eventual ruin. With the clear threat to the way of life of the tobacco farmers, there is an urgent need to preserve, at least on film, these varied treasures in their rich environments. MacKenzie’s photographs will serve as a reference for the next generation of architects and historians.
