Photography after dark continued


This is another picture from the exhibit I saw, it reminds me of some sort of Casablanca airfield building. 

Recent Met Exhibition


This piece is from a recent exhibition at the Met entitled "Photography after dark" and this particular picture is of Broadway after dark.  I found a new interest in photography and this exhibit was amazing to see, I have one more piece to share.

Contemporary Art

This piece by Herrara is a great acquisition by the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It signifies what is contemporary art and underlines the topics discussed Unit 13.

Rothko

Although Rothko's work was mentioned in the lecture, I chose this piece because of the color palette and I also remember seeing it at the National Art Gallery in Washington.

This photograph is reminiscent of a photo mentioned during the lecture of a woman in the streets of Paris.

Photography

Since we read about a picture of O'Keefe in the lecture I though I would post another O'Keefe picture by Stieglitz.

Chuck Close






When I saw we were reading about Chuck Close, I remember taking a snapshot of his other piece which is at the Met.  Both pieces are huge in scale and hang opposite one another among a few Warhol's.
