description: One of the most important architectural photographers working today, MacKenzie chronicles a fast-disappearing manifestation of the American Dream---the eloquent remains of barns, houses, and schools erected by immigrant settlers. His crisp black-and-white prints provide a poignant reminder that architecture sometimes becomes most evocative when it slips toward ruin.
