About the Item

Archival pigment print Signed and numbered, verso 22 x 17 inches, sheet (Edition of 15) 38 x 27 inches, sheet (Edition of 9) From the series, "The Secret Lives of Buildings" This photograph is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. Please note that prices increase as editions sell. Marc Yankus’ dreamlike portraits of New York City buildings straddle a fine line between documentary and fiction. In "The Secret Lives of Buildings," he captures the city’s architecture in an uncanny moment of stillness, free from the frenzy of people and cars. The sense of quietude lends elegance to the structures, both majestic and humble. Yankus inspires viewers to see historical buildings with a fresh perspective, offering an idealized and even utopian version of the past, while other buildings are viewed through a lens of potential. Yet in other scenes, the decay of crumbling concrete, chipped-away paint, and remnants of deconstruction paradoxically inspire a sense of agreeable nostalgia. Marc Yankus’ fine art and publishing experience span a period of more than thirty years. His work has been included in exhibitions at The Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn, New York; Exit Art, New York City; The Library of Congress, Washington, DC; and ClampArt, New York City. Yankus’ artwork has graced the covers of books by Salman Rushdie, Philip Roth, and Alan Hollinghurst, among many others. His images have also been used for theatrical posters for such acclaimed Broadway shows as “Jane Eyre”; August Wilson’s “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”; and John Patrick Shanley’s Pulitzer Prize winning play, “Doubt.” Additionally, Yankus’ photographs have appeared both on the covers and pages of numerous publications ranging from "The Atlantic Monthly" to "Photo District News."
