In the Cabinet:
In the 1950s and '60s, there were some 4000 drive-in movie theaters in the United States. 15-20 years later, few of them still existed. Scattered throughout the country, only odd remnants, such as huge projection screens attached to 2 posts and typefaces, reminded us of the heyday of "drive in" movie theaters. Herman van den Boom's photographs show the remnants of former cultural sites he discovered in 1976, in desolate, seemingly abandoned vast landscapes that were once given life, albeit mostly only temporarily, by the "drive in" cinemas.
