Lee Friedlander - Sticks & Stones: Architectural America
A resonant statement from the introductory essay by James Enyeart:
"Whether he's representing modest vernacular buildings or monumental skyscrapers, Friedlander liberates them from our preconceived notions and gives us a new way of looking at our surrounding environment"
* * *
Perhaps less related. Friedlander's compositions are more abstract, less spare, more formal and ultimately, for me, less satisfying. Provides a visual link between the formal compositional strategies of the architectural photographers (which I believe typifies my style) and the content-and-collection driven strategy of Shore.
