Crossing Paris

Located in Los Angeles, CA
This image is printed in an edition of 7, but comes in larger and smaller sizes. Each photograph is hand printed on Canson Baryta Paper and is signed and editioned by the artist.
The image has been shown in galleries in Paris and Los Angeles and several copies are owned by collectors worldwide.
Statement
This image of Crossing Paris is from Sarah Hadley's series Story Lines, which explores the female interior landscape. The series was inspired by the French New Wave films of the 60’s, which were shot in black and white on the street and which often portrayed the subconscious thoughts and feelings of ordinary women.

Untitled
By Phil Marco
Located in New York, NY
Humorous subject matter. Face mounted Plexi. Aluminum Braced. Archival Print.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Marco studied fine art at Pratt Institute and the Art Students League in New York. New York Times photography critic Gene Thornton called Marco “a Minimalist, whose images are sensual, whimsical, often surreal, always strong, and deceptively simple.”
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Phil Marco on a number of my films. Phil is a man of extraordinary talents. It seems that his passion is to take an everyday object or event, and show it in an entirely new and exciting way.”
Martin Scorsese.
Phil’s work is represented in MOMA, The Museum of the Moving Image,
and The George Eastman Museum of Photography.
His first photographs were studies for his paintings, before he launched a career in print advertising. He eventually became a Director / DP for film and television for a vast base of national and international clients with his wife Patricia as Partner and Producer. In the 1980’s and 90’s Phil was the go to person for Special Effects in Television and Cinema, also best known for his graphic conceptual still lives, and his consummate mastery of lighting, and design. He’s won many awards for his work, including numerous Cannes Lions, Cleo’s, a Grammy for his print work on the legendary “Tommy the Who...

"Armn 110418" Graffiti painted railroad train car, limited edition photo 10"x30"
Located in New York, NY
10"x30" c-print photograph, limited edition of 10 signed upon reverse, depicting a freight train car from the Union Pacific railroad, coated in colorful graffiti. The tagger team collaborated in a writing session on the train car using the same colors, in gradient colors of yellow, orange and pink letters, outlined in blue. The cream white metal sides of the train car are the perfect 'canvas' for the tags some recognized as "Trigz" "Betor" "Croox" "ICR". The photographer, Stephen Mallon, captures this moving train car and its tagged graffiti sides as it travels through the landscape of America, with a bucolic blue clouded sky just behind the railroad freight train car.
This is a limited edition, color photograph by the New York artist, Stephen Mallon, capturing moving freight trains in the United States. This series tracks the still active railroad lines and their rail cars in America, featured in "Passing West".
Front Room Gallery is pleased to present, “Passing West” a solo exhibition of photographs by Stephen Mallon. “Passing West” is a continuation of Mallon’s “Passing Freight” series, a visual celebration of the unique beauty and function of freight train cars in United States. This series of photographs captures the still active rail lines that carry freight to destinations across the country. Mallon’s industrial landscape photographs isolate freight cars within this iconic transportation system, which has played a critical role in supply infrastructure across the continent for hundreds of years. The photos in “Passing West” are framed against the open plains, mountain ranges, and the salt flats— mostly taken during a residency at the Montello Foundation in 2020, in which Mallon travelled the countryside of Utah and Nevada.
Poised against the rugged western landscape Mallon’s photographs of train cars often appear to carry the weight of the mountains themselves. Whether they are covered in graffitti or smartly displaying the rail lines iconic logos, each of these cars are brimming with it’s own individual personality. In one “Hopper” car, the tan car stands in front of the dusty desert mountains, and on it graffitti states “confront my toxic masculinty”. Another car, a yellow caboose with the crimson “Union Pacific” logo on it, would be as comfortable in an episode of “Thomas the Tank Engine” as on the set of “East of Eden”. Some of the open Box cars actually frame the mountains and flats themselves with their rectilinear shapes.
These trains are all moving, quite literally. And while they might appear to be stopped in the photograph, it is only for that split second as they pass Stephen Mallon, his camera, and his tripod.
