About the Item

New York's Art Deco grandeur is on full display everywhere in the Chrysler Building lobby. Decorative fair even exists in the metal wall frames. In this close-up photograph of one of them, the building's management cleverly inserted a picture of the iconic exterior spire. The display serves as corporate branding and establishes the spire as a logo for the building's identity. In the present work, Mitchell Funk photographs a photograph within a frame, which is set against the rich red Moroccan marble. Funk's allows the viewer to see the Chrysler Building inside the Chrysler Building. His photograph is a well-lit, carefully cropped, symmetrically composed design that allows the viewer to appreciate the building's interior and exterior at once. The image is part of a new epic exhibition, Mitchell Funk Photographs The Chrysler Building for 50 Years The Chrysler Building is one of the most photographed buildings in the world. Yet Mitchell Funk's photographs of it are anything but a tourist snapshot. For over 50 years, Funk has been celebrating and rediscovering it visually in a way that exemplifies the innovative spirit of its creators. The work is signed dated and numbered 2/15 lower right recto, with other sizes available, and it's unframed and printed later.
