This contemporary fine art photograph by Jacob Gils portrays the Manhattan Bridge framed by historic brick buildings, rendered through layered motion and expressive blur that transforms steel, stone, and street life into a dynamic, painterly vision of New York City, evoking depth, movement, and the city’s enduring architectural rhythm.
Jacob Gil’s Movement – Cities series examines the energy and momentum of urban environments through motion blur and long exposure photography. By capturing shifting light, architectural lines, and the movement of streets and crowds, Gil reduces the city to its essential rhythms. Familiar skylines and structures dissolve into layered, abstract forms, emphasizing pace, density, and atmosphere. The series reflects the constant motion of modern cities, where structure and chaos exist in continuous tension.

New York #4 - Yellow Cab - Contemporary - Photography

New York #4 (2016)
Size: 28 x 43 inches / Edition of 6
Size: 47 x 71 inches / Edition of 5
Size: 63 x 94 inches / Edition of 1
New York #4 is from the Artist's "Movement City" collection. Movement is a series which combines a strong aesthetic point of view with meticulous attention to technical detail. As the title indicates, the series is concerned with giving shape to temporal and spatial aspects inherent in all visual experience.
"At first glance, these multi-point visual puzzles appear out of focus or shaken , but in fact they consist of many different and very sharp photographs of the same motif. They are carefully combined through multiple exposures, resulting in a dynamic illusion of being on-the-go. My fascination with multiple exposures began in the 1980's. In my work with analogue photography, multiple exposures would occur accidentally from time to time. Quite often, I found the visual results of these accidents to be both aesthetically fascinating and enigmatic. It is this fascination that continues to inform my work in Movement". - Jacob Gils...
