In a series of eight photographs commissioned by MTA Arts & Design for the Lightbox program, fine-art photographer and CALA instructor, Lynn Saville, captures a unique moment at 42nd Street and Vanderbilt Avenue in New York’s ever-changing architectural landscape. For the first time in nearly a century, the western façade of Grand Central Terminal has been revealed.
Saville specializes in photographing “the boundary times between night and day” such as early morning or in the evening. Her long exposure, large format photographs are typically of built spaces and artificial as well as natural light, often in contrast together. Saville reimagines an everyday environment as a cinematic film set discovered by the artist’s eye through framing and timing.
