About the Item

Racetrack by Frank Schott ( framed ) "Modern Gallery Frameless" highly detailed photographic capture of the mesmerizing night sky above the California desert "Modern Gallery Frameless", a contemporary alternative to classic framing: photo print is mounted onto aluminum composite for archival support and stability, then sealed behind a protective layer of high quality acrylic glass with polished edges all around. A recessed aluminum back frame adds additional stability, allows instant hanging and provides a floating artwork appearance. 48 x 88 inches (122 x 224cm) signed edition of 7 archival fine art pigment print signed & numbered by artist on certificate label 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.
