This selection is long overdue. One of my favourite projects is Richard Renaldi’s ‘Fall River Boys’.

Starting in the Spring of 2000 and lasting nine years, Renaldi made frequent trips to the Massachusetts town of Fall River. Located near to the Atlantic coast, Fall River was once a centre for textile manufacturing. Renaldi photographed the young men of the Fall River as they came of age in a town and an industrial landscape that was past its prime.

The results are compelling.
