About the Item

Perpendicular lines of white and yellow, rectangles of yellow, and white bands of equal proportion define this overhead Manhattan intersection. As an afterthought, it's a nod to Mondrian, but it's just another example of Street Photographer ( literally ) Mitchell Funk addressing the concrete and essential elements of a picture - namely its shapes, forms, and colors. Funk has captured a perfect primary color moment - where cars, motorbikes, and pedestrians inadvertently position themselves to form a perfectly balanced composition. The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit off color. Refer to the still images for more accurate color Can a street photograph be a grab shot and precisely designed at the same time? Mitchell Funk says yes. He brings finely honed photography skills such as composition, intense lighting and design to found subject matter. Mitchell Funk brings the compositional precision of studio photography to street photography. Unlike most street photographers, Funk is an abstractionist while being a documentarian. This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, dated and numbered 2/15, lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later.

"Brooklyn Boogie Woogie" (detail) 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's a very interesting detail, and typical of the artist there are only a few elements at play but they are powerfully at play. The surface textures of steel, glass and ceramic are caught in an abstraction – there's musicality to the vertical bands of white and shadow, thick and thin notes against two horizontal fields of orange and slate.
