New Topographics

March 24, 2010

Perhaps it’s the spring weather and all of it’s inviting and overcast glory, but I can’t get those New Topographers out of my mind. Clearly, they are a big influence on my most mind-numbing work but one day I aspire to inspire as they do. These images are rocking my photo mind in all their banal beauty: (all photographs are copyright their respective photographers)

Lewis Baltz, “South Corner, Riccar America Company, 3184 Pullman, Costa Mesa,” from the series “New Industrial Parks,” 1974


Lewis Baltz, Untitled 1971


Bernd and Hilla Becher, From “Typologies of Industrial Buildings”
