Mitchell Funk
Timeless Staten Island Ferry and Statue of Liberty at Sunset in New York Harbor

1999

About the Item

Mitchell Funk captures a timeless image of New York scene in a fresh way. The unorthodox composition leaves the center of the picture vacant, leaving the two subjects on the extreme edges of the picture plane. The old State Island Ferry embarks on one of its many voyages with only empty space and time ahead of it. The image is emblematic of the Ferry's soothing tranquility as it departs the frenzied pace of the city. This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, dated and numbered 3/15, lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later.

Epic Western No. 38
By Jim Krantz
Located in New York, NY
Listing includes free shipping for unframed prints in the continental U.S. and a 14 day return policy. Jim Krantz Epic Western No. 38, 2020 40 x 60 inch chromogenic print Edition 5 of 7 Krantz occupies a unique place in the history of contemporary art for his imagery blending western landscape photography with the figure of the cowboy as depicted and romanticized in American popular culture. The technical underpinning of his work was established when he studied with Ansel Adams and Paul Caponigro, but perhaps more importantly, Krantz’s work reflects a dictum that he learned from Adams: “Technical proficiency leads to artistic freedom.” His range and versatility are his forte, working with ease in demanding and ever-changing conditions. If Krantz’s work looks familiar, it is not surprising. Krantz, had been documenting the cinematic vistas of the American West for 20 years on commercial assignments and these much published images caught the eye of appropriation artist, Richard Prince, known for re-photographing advertisements and presenting the resulting images in a new “conceptual” context. Prince’s most famous series is his large scale reproductions of the cowboy images...
