Scott Frances’ MonoVision (5 photos)
All photos © Scott Frances. Above: Glass house designed by architect Kengo Kuma. New Canaan, CT.
Architectural photographer Scott Frances’ exhibition MonoVisioN, comprised of large-scale works, is currently on view at the D&D Building in Manhattan.
The exhibition coincides with the release of Frances’ first monograph of the same title with an introduction by Richard Meier, published by Pond Press. In the preface to MonoVisioN, Meier states: “A Scott Frances photograph captures all these ephemeral elements that I have always explored in my architectural work. The images in this book portray the qualities that give every space and building a sense of place, and the constant dialogue between the man-made and the natural. MonoVisioN becomes an exploration of solid and void, transparency and opaqueness, the rational and the intuitive, and an essay on composition.”
