I actually forgot to post this amongst all the other fantastic Laura Faye Martin photographs.
It's a montage of every single photo she took at the ICA in Boston, MA.
Immediately I was struck by the similarities between it and the famous Joseph Stella "Brooklyn Bridge" painting that hangs in Boston's Museum of Fine Arts.

Alas, I'm always a bit concerned with the posting copywrighted work, so instead I'm taking an image from Flickr below.
This is Stella's "Factories at Night."
It's striking in its geometric patterns-- the same depth of perception that is brought out in the above work.
Also, I can't help but to also think of the recent Brice Marden retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan.
The way the colors line up in the triptych formation-- it's like a hyrid... a "Stellarden", shall we say-- ala Brangelina or Lamgelina?
Good stuff all.
Do I pass Art History Comparison 101?
