Synopsis

Towering Mirrors is a study in visual abstraction, as well as a showcase of modern architecture. The volume takes us on a nation-wide tour of magnificent buildings, from Chicago to Dallas to Sarasota, Florida. The collection features incredible variety: some shots are humorous and full of color; some are curious and surreal; still others are somber and impressive. Using nothing more than skillful framing and careful timing, Weinberg perfectly captures the striking beauty of American skyscrapers. Each shot is an experiment in color and composition, making surprisingly interesting subjects of the ordinary places where people work and live.

About the Author:

David Weinberg, a former Chicago businessman and contributing university professor, has recently found amazing success as a photo-abstraction artist; his unique style portrays ordinary objects in unexpected ways, emphasising aesthetics over content. Previous series include 'L'Esplorazion', an innovative study of rusty scrap heaps, and 'Foil Flowers', which pairs delicate floral shapes with metallic reflections. Weinberg lives in Chicago, Illinois, the city that first inspired his love for architecture. 'Towering Mirrors, Mirroring Towers' is his first book.
