About the Item

MAX STEVEN GROSSMAN "70's Rock Square" Trans Mounted Metallic Print 48 x 53 in. Ed of 5 *Please note there is a printing time of 14 Business Days** Exploring the changing accessibility and value of books and photography, Max Steven Grossman’s Bookscapes series visualizes libraries that exist only in his imagination. Curated thematically through an intricate process of digital collage, Grossman builds each bookcase with photographs he has stockpiled from public and private collections, bookstores, and online. Organized by topic, Grossman often returns to his favored motifs: fashion, architecture, art, and rock and roll. Presented in large-scale formats, Grossman creates the illusion of standing before a physical library. Stacked closely and overlapping, the crowded shelves spotlight each book’s title and cover image for a perfect, archival summation of the subject matter. Encouraging an ongoing dialogue, each Bookscape is both personal and universal, depending on the viewer’s curiosity and relationship to the field of study. Alluding to the gradual loss of paper books, Grossman allows for the physical world to be replaced by his virtual constructions, all the while presenting a collection of printed knowledge that is within reach, but ultimately unattainable. Max Steven Grossman (B. 1971, Barranquilla, Colombia) graduated from the University of Philadelphia in 1994 with a degree in engineering. Soon after, he discovered his passion for photography. In 2000, Grossman graduated from New York University and the International Center of Photography with a Master of Arts. Grossman’s background in the diverse studies of engineering and photography has helped mold not only his signature style, but has propelled his practice towards a deeper examination of reality versus fantasy.

Persephone I - muted still life of a timeless environmental interior vignette
By Erik Pawassar
Located in San Francisco, CA
Large scale original photograph from Erik Pawassar's body of works 'Persephone', a series of environmental still-life photographs of timeless palimpsest impressions 62 x 48 inches (157 x 122cm) signed edition of 7 40 x 31 inches (102 x 79cm) signed edition of 25 24 x 19 inches (61 x 48cm) signed edition of 25 archival fine art pigment print signed & numbered by artist on certificate label ____________________________ Erik Pawassar's work focuses on the beauty of the disregarded or mundane object. The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado, Raghubir Singh...
