David Leventi has an eye for grand spaces. He's photographed opera houses the world over, tower blocks and valleys in Romania, and Columbia University in New York City. His most powerful images, however, come from spaces few of us would dare visit — the world's largest prisons. With the same scope and scale as his Opera House series, Leventi details the architecture of Breda Prison in the Netherlands and Stateville Correctional Center in Illinois. The images are as spectacular as they are chilling.
