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.
