Getty Center Abstractions 2
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010
Los Angeles, California. Every time I get to the Getty I’m astounded by the architecture. The architect Richard Meier put incredible lines, windows, angles, curves, and textures in almost every view. You look up, down, across and through in almost any place you can get to and there are things of interest to see.
Looking at the details of this architecture abstractly reminds me of the work of Kandinsky and other Bauhaus painters and architects as well as the Russian Supremists and I wanted to make a small collection to attempt to document that.
These images are of the series: Getty Center Abstractions which can be seen as thumbnails or a slide show.
Richard, those are absolutely superb views of The Getty. You definitely should do an exhibition of your Getty Center Abstractions. Wow!
And soo nice available light and shadows! I agree with Gary, these all are exhibition-worth images.
Beautiful shots, Richard. I really like the second one. Love the delicate contrast in the top half of the image.
Thanks Gary, Jonne, and Chris.
I agree Chris, the light and shadows on the top of the second image is fascinating. The curve in that piece of the building does great things with light.
