Yossi Milo Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of color photographic works by Markus Brunetti. FACADES – Grand Tour will open on Thursday, February 1, with a reception for the artist from 6:00–8:00pm, and will close on Saturday, March 24. Brunetti’s second solo exhibition at the gallery will feature large-scale prints recently completed for his singular, ongoing series: FACADES.

Markus Brunetti’s FACADES is a project dedicated to recording and conveying the artistic complexity of European architecture by capturing the façades of historic cathedrals, churches and cloisters in minute detail. In the tradition of Bernd and Hilla Becher’s serial documentation of German industrialization, the front surface of each structure is photographed in a precise and regulated style allowing for typologies and comparisons. The subjects are conceived as idealized designs, or as what might be called photographic drawings on paper, similar to the architects’ or builders’ original plans and the engravings of Old Masters.
