Covid 19 - 2020-04-13 -NY-West Broadway - Street Scene Photograph in Downtown
By Jean-Luc Fievet
Located in New York, NY
This is a 39.5 x 59 inches archival giclée black and white print on archival exhibition paper. It is part of a limited edition of 6 plus 2 AP. Signed and numbered in the back. An edition of 10 and an edition of 20, smaller in size, are also available. This photograph is part of J. L.

Fievet’s iconic photographs tried to seize the stark contrast between the surreal aspect of NYC empty streets with the resiliance of New Yorkers who kept pursuing normalcy within a unique situation. This photograph shows a deserted West Broadway...

"Abstract, 6th Ave, NYC" is a color photograph on Etching Rag archival paper. It's a signed Edition of 20, available in sizes 16x24, 11x17 and 8x12 inches. It is a striking composition, and typical of the artist there are only a few elements at play but they are powerfully at play. The hard line geometry of the building, captured with angled and horizontal repeating shapes, shows small shards of blue sky. Shooting on the streets of New York, looking up and looking for often-missed city/sky collisions, Bob Krasner...
