Ezra Stoller's Architectural Photographs by alex anderson




Ezra Stoller was an American architectural photographer.  In these photographs, on can see how through lines of alternating light and shadow he managed to create a kind of pressure, each time drawing the eye to a central and very subtle horizontal and vertical convergence. In this way the effect is strong, but the means to do so is not obvious. Perhaps because he does not emphasize the physical characteristics of a scene, but the luminary ones, he dramatizes the architecture, and creates a beautiful and almost abstract photograph.
