Richard Skoonberg
'Rising Water' - Black and White - Landscape Photography - Eliot Porter

2020

About the Item

'Rising Water' is a black and white landscape photograph taken near the Chattahoochee River. Additional sizes are available. This listing is for an unframed print, edition 1/10. Richard Skoonberg is inspired by the work of Eliot Porter, Lee Friedlander and Thomas Struth. Richard Skoonberg’s photographs offer a complexity that is chaotic and cohesive, intriguing and meditative. He works in the traditions of landscape, street photography and photo collage. Richard studied photography at the California College of the Arts under the Czech surrealist photographer, Vilem Kriz. His photographs have been shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia (MOCA), the Atlanta Photography Group Gallery and in the main Mezzanine of the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. His latest body of work focuses on the Chattahoochee River which nearly spans the full height of the state of Georgia. His photographs of the Chattahoochee are images of nature that are often overlooked—tangled, disorderly and wild. These images can be intimidating, emotional and a challenge, but at a closer look, reveal a serene depth and quietness. “Much is missed if we have eyes only for the bright colors. Nature should be viewed without distinction… She makes no choice herself; everything that happens has equal significance. Nothing can be dispensed with. This is a common mistake that many people make — they think that half of nature can be destroyed — the uncomfortable half — while still retaining the acceptable and the pleasing side.” – Eliot Porter

He took up photography at an early age and as a 20-year-old found himself working as a photographer for The London Times on the pitch at the World Cup Final in Mexico City. On that day, David took the famous picture of Diego Maradona holding the World Cup and, as a result, was subsequently asked to cover the Olympics and numerous other sporting events. Many years later David established himself as a fine art photographer by documenting the natural world from new perspectives and the last nine years have been career-defining. David’s evocative and immersive photography of life on earth is most distinctive and has earned him an ever-growing following amongst art collectors. His large monochrome images made in Los Angeles are on display in leading galleries and museums across Europe and North America. He is now recognised as one of the best-selling fine art...

"66 Degrees North" Wold Horse Shot in Namafjall Georhermal Area, Iceland
By David Yarrow
Located in Greenwich, CT
"66 Degrees North" Namafjall Geothermal Area, Iceland - 2022 Available Sizes (Framed Size) 52 x 58" Framed / Edition of 12 71 x 80" Framed / Edition of 12 This work is sourced directly from the artist. Framed Digital Pigment Print on Archival 315gsm Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta Paper Hand-signed by artist with Certificate of Authenticity Developing a concept that ticks the boxes creatively and then executing that concept are emphatically two different jobs, which is why making a picture is a longer process than taking a picture. Many years ago, the exceptional work of British photographer Tim Flach, drew my attention to the hot springs of Myvatn in the north of Iceland. This remote area is geologically angry and in deep winter it is fairly inhospitable, but in the summer, it becomes something of a tourist resort for the local Icelandics and all too crowded for how we operate. We would always choose inhospitable over crowded. I have filmed here in the winter in the past, but struggled to do justice to the uniquely raw ecosystem. As always there is an element of knowing how to get it right by initially getting it hopelessly wrong. In particular, this is not a safe place without engaging locals, because the ground underneath, much like Yellowstone in Wyoming, is not to be taken for granted. To be brave and work close to the geysers needs permits and guides. But in 2022, we finally had our rewards. The weather plays such a big role in the field; no more so than up here at 66 degrees north where the Norse Gods granted my wish for strong winds and good light. It was the wind that amplified the trail of steam and allowed me to work a comfortable distance from the source without losing the effect. It was then up to me to work the strong late afternoon light to the best of my advantage. The end result is a strong image and certainly authentic. It's stripped back and visceral mood lives and breathes the wildest of Icelandic sagas. There are horse...
