About the Item

Photographer Mitchell Funk captures mid-town New York City illuminated in magical pink light. Missing are the new super-tall buildings that would have obscured a beautiful dialog between the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building currently depicted. Who knows what they were chatting about? Perhaps: "it is good to the the biggest and tallest kids on the block" as the both majestically rise above the New York Skyline. This work, shot in 1998 on Kodachrome, pushes the boundaries of color in color photography. Signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, other sizes available, printed later, unframed.
