About the Item
Algiers Motel Apartments, photograph from Richard Heeps' Dream in Color series.
This visually arresting artwork captures the essence of a sunbathed, mid-century modern apartment structure, evoking a secluded and tranquil suburban oasis. The composition is sharply executed, with the golden hour light splendidly illuminating the building’s facade, casting crisp shadows and warm hues. The angular, streamlined architecture, featuring a cantilevered second floor with sleek metal railing and a stairway that ascends elegantly to the upper level, encapsulates a style that is both timeless and nostalgic. Distinctive elements such as the pastel blue trimming along the roofline and balcony railings, juxtaposed with the cream-colored walls, create a pleasing visual contrast. The vivid red accent at the base of the building draws the eye and provides added depth to the piece. To the left, a lone palm tree and varied green foliage contribute a touch of natural elegance, further enhancing the idyllic, almost cinematic atmosphere. Noteworthy is the sky depicted in the background, its azure expanse dotted with delicate clouds, which adds a serene and expansive quality to the composition. The artist's meticulous attention to light and perspective results in a piece that is not only a stunning architectural study but also a narrative tableau, inviting the viewer to imagine the lives and stories contained within the walls of this evocative dwelling. This artwork is a testament to the timeless allure of mid-century modern architecture, captured with precision and an evocative warmth.

Frank Schott was born in Germany where he spends nights shooting the great bands and musicians of the 80s, while attending the Academy of Arts in Cologne under Professor Arno Jansen.
His early photography work focuses on beauty and fashion, later evolving to include conceptual landscapes and large scale environments, while never losing the eye for details.
In 1998 Frank moves to California. He draws inspiration from the epic landscapes and distinct architecture of the American West as much as from his travels abroad.
