Post Impressionist New York City Fountain Scene - like Georges Seurat
-
Description
Dancing waters emanate from a New York City fountain to fill the sky with thousands of circles of light. Bystanders mingle in the mist as Street Photographer Mitchell Funk captures them through the waters with a long lens. This is a straight shot without digital manipulation. Funk is paring down photography to its bare essentials, and in this work, we see a Georges Seurat-like pointillism realized in photographic terms.
Signed, dated, and numbered 2/15 lower right recto, other sizes available and printed later and unframed. This work is printed on fine art Hahnemuhle paper.
The video is coming up light and use the still images as a reference for color and value.
