Mitchell Funk
Surreal Brooklyn Bridge with Blue Sky Golden Windows and Red Kite

1970

About the Item

Why is this view of the Brooklyn Bridge, a blue sky, and golden windows no longer visible? The image is a creation from Mitchell Funk's mind. It comprises three photographs with colored filters and then stitched together on an analog Repronar copying device. As a young photographer of 21 years, he liberated himself from the conventional color photography sensibility of the time. He experimented with radical camera angles and assembled multiple images with different light sources and color gels. The resulting image, "Surreal Brooklyn Bridge with Blue Sky Golden Windows and Red Kite," is generations ahead of its time and looks as fresh and cutting edge today as it did 54 years ago. The attached video shows light and uses the still images as a reference for color and shape. This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, numbered 3/15, dated and titled and lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. This work is printed on fine art Hahnemuhle paper. Mitchell Funk is a pioneer of " Color Photography" In 1970 he participated in one the first " Color Photography" shows at a major museum. Brooklyn Museum, show "Images en Couleur" . 1971 Included he was included in the visionary book "Frontiers of Photography" Time Life. Color ! American Photography Transformed. Amon Carter Museum. He has had more than 50 Photography Magazine Covers and has had covers on Newsweek, Fortune, New York Magazine and Life Magazine among others
