Operating Room

About the Item

24"x 30" photograph, edition of 5, signed on reverse This photograph was taken at Greystone Park Hospital, and shows a distressed abandoned operating room. We can see a fallen fixture that was once hanging from the ceiling has fallen in the center of the room. The ceiling shows large patches of paint worn away and chipped off showing the white paint underneath that was once there. There is debris covering the floor of the space. The cool toned room is dark, but shows a bright natural light peeping into the room through a large door. Phillip Buehler has been photographing abandoned places around the world since he rowed to the (then abandoned) Ellis Island in 1974. Many, like Greystone Park Hospital, have since been demolished; some, like Ellis Island and the High Line, have been restored, and some, like the S.S. United States and the New York State Pavilion, are now in jeopardy. Photographs from the (now demolished) Greystone Park Hospital are featured in this exhibition and in the book “Wardy Forty” which he wrote in 2013 about the last days of Woody Guthrie

By Phillip Buehler
Located in New York, NY
limited edition of 5, signed on reverse by the artist, Phillip Buehler. This photograph depicts what remains of the of the Sam Goody entrance at the deserted Wayne Hills Mall, in Wayne, New Jersey. The prominent sign to the entrance of the mall, has been removed yet, there is still the vaguely visible lettering on the grand entrance to the closed retailer. Phillip Buehler captures the last stages of the life of the once bustling mall, with the empty corridors and dilapidated storefronts and kiosks. This photograph is a featured in a solo exhibition of Phillip Buehler's photographs, entitled: “Mallrat to Snapchat: The End of the Third Place.” Front Room Gallery is proud to present “Mallrat to Snapchat: The End of the Third Place,” on view November 29th - January 12th. January recent work by photographer Phillip Buehler documenting the death of the Wayne Hills Mall in Wayne, New Jersey. This is Buehler’s second solo show at Front Room Gallery. Buehler’s exhibition is part photography, part installation, part cultural critique, mixed in with nostalgia and genuine affection for this very American economical and sociological experiment— The Mall. Buehler takes a very intimate look at the beginning, and possibly ending, of mall culture in the United States featuring not only photographs, but also artifacts from the mall and its opening year, 1973. Under a photograph of a desolate Sam Goody will be a bin filled with almost 100 albums from that year, that visitors can flip through and play in the gallery on a vintage record player...

"Waldenbooks" Wayne Hills Mall, NJ (Modern Ruins) 24"x30" color photograph
By Phillip Buehler
Located in New York, NY
24"x30 contemporary color photograph, limited edition of 5, signed on reverse by the artist, Phillip Buehler. The shuttered gate of Waldenbooks appears as an ineffectual effort in the dilapidated scene captured by Phillip Buehler. The once brilliant sign has been removed, yet you can see the aura of the letters, appearing as black signage against a grey-black surface. Debris and trash litter the flooded corridor, creating a errie feeling.
