Richard Misrach Golden Gate Bridge, 10.31.98, 5:22 P.M. 1998 Chromogenic print. 18 x 23 in. (45.7 x 58.4 cm) Signed, titled, dated and numbered 7/25 in ink in the margin.
Literature Arena Editions, Richard Misrach Golden Gate, n.p. for two variants Artist Bio Richard Misrach American • 1949 Known for his ethereal depictions of the American Southwest and stunning use of color, Richard Misrach photographs dramatic land and seascapes, and, more recently, produces breathtakingly complex abstractions. Misrach's work engages with traditional ideas of the sublime landscape, as their immense beauty engulfs both the subjects in his photographs as well as the viewer. On the Beach, one of Misrach's most famous series, features spectacular aerial images of the sea and beach that convey both the vulnerability and preciousness of life. One of the most pervasive themes present in his work is the relationship between humans and their environment, depicting our impact on the world through feats of engineering as in his Golden Gate Bridge series, and with his Desert Cantos with nuclear testing in the American desert.
