Eiffel Tower in Jackson Pollock Drip Lighting - Paris France,

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
When the Eiffel Tower was conceived in 1886, it was to be a symbol of aesthetic avant-garde thinking. In 1994, Photographer Mitchell Funk pays homage to Gustave Eiffel's spirit of creativity. Funk photographed the French Monument in an equally inspired visual style. By shaking his camera at the lights of the base of the tower, he created hyperactive image of agitated colorful swirls. He then combined that image with an upward nocturnal view of the tower. This resulted in a theatricality that expresses the timelessness of the Eiffel Tower combined with the contemporary energy of a Jackson Pollock-like drip painting.

The work is signed, dated, and numbered 3/15, lower right recto. printed later , Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper.
