Mitchell Funk
Sci Fi Close Encounters with Orange New York City

1975

About the Item

Conceptual Photographer Mitchell Funk created a Sci-Fi image 2 years before the iconic Close Encounters of a Third Kind was released in 1977. Funk's work is really two images combined on one 35 mm frame. It seems somewhat real because Funk's matches the color, camera angle and perspective. Done in 1975, this seminal work of hi color/ design photography drives color photography in a new direction. In the late 1970s and 1980s Funk worked for the trailblazing SciFi Magazine Omni published by Bob Guccione.
