Now Showing | Ezra Stoller
An exhibition of the work of the photographer Ezra Stoller opens this day at Yossi Milo Gallery. Stoller, who died in 2004 at age 89, was the foremost chronicler of Modernist architecture, using his large-format camera to record seminal 20th-century works like Mies van der Rohe’s Seagram Building, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater and Guggenheim Museum, and Eero Saarinen’s TWA Terminal at Idlewild Airport (now Kennedy). The exhibition of gelatin silver prints includes not just images of these buildings but also of lesser-known midcentury works like the Starkey house in Duluth, Minn., by Marcel Breuer, and the International Style, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill-designed First National City Bank (now Citibank) branch, also at Kennedy — which still stands, albeit in a less pristine landscape than when Stoller trained his deep-focus lens on it. So influential was Stoller’s approach, which captured a building’s lines in sometimes abstract, often monumental compositions, that a project wasn’t considered complete until it had been “Stollerized.” The exhibition continues through Feb. 12.
