About the Item
A great little modernist image of a forgotten town.
Lloyd Ullberg was a highly talented self-taught American modernist photographer whose works were published in major American periodicals including Fortune, Vogue and the Saturday Evening Post. He was also a longtime staff photographer for the California Academy of Sciences.
Ullberg had a very interesting career path. He was a classically trained musician who studied at Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, PA. He went on to play the oboe with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and the Philadelphia Orchestra. But Ullberg had a life-changing injury due to a freak snowball accident that ended his career in music.
Ullberg transitioned into the visual arts world, and went on to create numerous modern art photographs.
Best known for his surrealism, abstraction, and haunting images from the American West, in particular, ghost towns of Nevada and California.
This work is from one of his ghost town trips. It is in excellent condition and is signed with artist's stamp signature verso. Photo copy of signature secured to back of framing.
