Michael Wolf, Who Photographed Skyscrapers Minus the Sky, Dies at 65







I have seen a couple of these headlines today so thought that I would share. Michael Wolf died at the age of 65. I will attach some of his work on to this post. He is known for "framing building in disorienting fashion, he created images of Hong Kong's density. He also recorded the minutiae of its everyday life" (New York times) Wolf is a German artist who lives in Hong Kong and Paris. He has focused his art on city life and what it is like to live in a city daily. He liked to see the supermarket bar code in his pictures when he looked at the city.
Here is the link to his obituary on the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/26/obituaries/michael-wolf-hong-kong-architecture-density.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Farts&action=click&contentCollection=arts&region=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=8&pgtype=sectionfront
