About the Item

A moody, silver and grey light, composed of harmonious hues, caresses the Chrysler Building, while subtle highlights shimmer off the glass facades that frame it. Photographer Mitchell Funk specializes in creating drama out of the ordinary. It's all about knowing the right place and waiting for the right light at the right time. The present work is a stellar example of Funk transforming familiar subject matter into a uniquely aesthetic one. The image is part of a new epic exhibition, Mitchell Funk Photographs The Chrysler Building for 50 Years. The Chrysler Building is one of the most photographed buildings in the world. Yet Mitchell Funk's photographs of it are anything but a tourist snapshot.
