Lessons of the Abandoned

Our latest episode is filled with both beauty and ugliness.

After the visit to the Driftless Area of Wisconsin, we make our way back to Chicago and learn more about Jose’s past.

Then we continue on to Gary, Indiana, where we find the most unbelievable abandoned places. When we dig into the history of this city, we learn a sad truth…


This photograph is included in the José Luis Vílchez Fine Art Photography | Abandoned Collection.
Prints are available in museum-quality archival paper, canvas, and metal.
