About the Item

For over 50 years, Mitchell Funk has been renowned for creating images with precise lighting and compositional exactitude. The present image, "Wherever You Look, You See The Chrysler Building: Times Square" fits that description and more. Here, Funk shoots a gaudy sightseeing bus as it plods up 8th Avenue. It fills the complete foreground space of the composition. Surrounding it is a cacophony of unharmonious commercial shapes and colors. In the distance, the elegant Art Deco spire of the Chrysler Building proudly rises above the noise. 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. For 50 years, Funk has been celebrating and rediscovering it visually in a way that exemplifies the innovative spirit of its creators. The work is signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, with other sizes available, and it's unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit off color.
