If abandoned and left alone, human settlements are inevitably taken back into nature’s fold. Photographer and ruin explorer Nakasuji Jun confronts us with the eerily still and untouched buildings and interiors of a modern town now lost to the forest. Chairs and tables are covered in lush carpets of moss, trees spring from roofless houses and rusted vehicles, once lively industry lies quiet, and vines delicately drape facades and power lines with a mantle of green. The stories the town holds slowly slip away in nature’s embrace.

The Murrays have been capturing impeccable photographs from the streets of New York City since the 1990s. With Store Front II they’ve continued their documentation of an important cross-section of New York’s “Mom and Pop” economy. The Murray’s penetrating photographs are only half the story though.

Summary:
The Murrays have been capturing impeccable photographs from the streets of New York City since the 1990s. With Store Front II they’ve continued their documentation of an important cross-section of New York’s “Mom and Pop” economy. The Murray’s penetrating photographs are only half the story though. Their copious background texts, gleaned largely from interviews with the stores’ owners and employees, bring wonderful color and nuance to the importance of these unique one-off establishments. The Murrays have rendered the out of the way bodegas, candy shops and record stores just as faithfully as the historically important institutions and well known restaurants, bars and cafes. From the Stonewall Inn to the Brownsville Bike Shop and The Pink Pussycat to Smith and Wolensky, the Murrays reveal how New York’s long-standing businesses stand in sharp contrast to the city’s rapidly evolving corporate facade.
