Frank Schott
Racetrack (mounted) - desert landscape panorama under mesmerizing night sky

2011

About the Item

Racetrack by Frank Schott (2011) a highly detailed black & white photograph capturing the mesmerizing night sky above California's desert landscape 32 x 60 inches / 81 x 152cm mounted for instant installation archival photography print on matte fine art paper mounted on dibond backing with recessed aluminum back frame for a frameless "floating" installation signed by artist verso with certificate label _____________ About the artist: Frank Schott grew up in Germany and attended the prestigious Academy of Arts in Cologne, studying under Professor Arno Jansen, who was an early influence. Moving to California in 1998, Schott's work has evolved to include the epic landscapes of the American West as well as architectural, conceptual and more formal environments from both home and his travels. Influenced by a number of photographic piers and precursors such as Candida Hofer, Jeff Wall, Gregory Crewdson and Joel Sternfeld, Schott's images successfully blend technical, conceptual and formal rigor with a decisive sense of composition and color. Schott's images have an iconic sensibility and give us a bird's eye view onto humanity and its constructs. The specific is edged towards the abstract, often revealing the compelling and disjunctive moment where nature meets man. In 2006, Schott switched entirely from 4x5” film to a medium format digital camera system, when the quality of digital large format printing finally became en par with analogue. The technical fluency and definitive compositions present in Schott's images are informed by his background as a highly successful commercial photographer for major brands. Schott was born in Cologne, Germany in 1962. He lives and works in San Francisco. _________________________ Edition EKTAlux publishes an evolving curated selection of collectable large-scale photography in strictly limited editions, working closely with each artist to guarantee state-of-the-art museum level print and framing quality.
