Description

Select American colleges and universites decorate their architecture with grotesque sculpture. Armed with a camera, a sense of irony as well as determination bordering on obsessive, photographer and author Mathew M. Duman has traveled to ten such campuses in search of their most compelling ornamentation. Not to be satisfied with merely having amassed a caché of many engaging photographs, Mathew has also undertaken the challenge of categorizing and organizing them into this volume. This is not only a collection of collegiate sculpture, but a chronicle of Collegiate Gothic architecture, a fascinating building style from America's academic history. --
