Mid-Century Rocket Ship Cityscape Abstract Skyline
-
Description
In the present work, the artist arranges a series of rockets and support structures in a row to mimic the New York City skyline under hyper-dramatic lighting conditions. It embodies the ultimate and quintessential mid-century look. Masterfully composed and deftly executed, it features a complex latticework-like structure of flat, boldly colored, semi-abstract, interlocking shapes and lines. The artwork celebrates the mid-century American rocket age.
