About the Item

City road workers inadvertently become modern-day Steet Artists. Mitchell Funk in a continuing series, captures the colorful diagram mark-ups that city road crews use to plot out their work. Funk's trained eye transforms these utilitarian street diagrams of dots and dashes into artful images. The woman with the purple umbrella perfectly compliments the composition. The top angle looking down showcases and frames the red and yellow street marks in a way that is similar to looking at a large minimalist canvas. Signed and numbered 2/15 lower right recto, Dated and titled on verso, other sizes available, unframed. Can a street photograph be a grab shot and precisely designed at the same time? Mitchell Funk says yes. He brings finely honed photography skills such as composition, intense lighting and design to found subject matter. Mitchell Funk brings the compositional precision of studio photography to street photography. Unlike most street photographers, Funk is an abstractionist while being a documentarian. Mitchell Funk is a pioneer of " Color Photography" In 1970 he participated in one the first " Color Photography" shows at a major museum. Brooklyn Museum, show "Images en Couleur" . 1971 Included he was included in the visionary book "Frontiers of Photography" Time Life. Color ! American Photography Transformed. Amon Carter Museum.
