You can find benches in parks, in cities, in shopping malls and just about everywhere. They are providing people with a space to lounge, sleep, eat and contemplate. But if you take people out of the equation, benches lose their civic purpose. An empty bench is a melancholic — and occasionally eerie — sight, especially in such a busy city. This selection shows that benches can be objects of beauty in their own right too.
