For years, artists have been painting and photographing cityscapes. One location that tends to be featured often is New York City. So this week, we wanted to look at five artists whose work can quickly bring forth a New York state of mind:
Erin Clark
Who better to capture the essence of New York’s cityscapes than a native like artist Erin Clark? She spent a portion of her life working and living in the Big Apple. Thus, her cityscapes have a realistic vibe that’s hard to find in other artists’ works. Pieces of her framed art that cosmopolitan thinkers may adore are Manhattan Bridge Aura, Flaming Cyclone, Gotham Grandeur, Tribeca Twilight and the Gilded Empire.
Oleg Lugovasky
Although he wasn’t born there, Russian photographer Oleg Lugovasky has a profound way of capturing Gotham’s cityscapes too. Originally from Tashkent, he currently lives and works in the City that Never Sleeps. His list of notable photos includes Brooklyn Bridge, The Great Bridge, New York City and the Dark Mansion.
Henri Silberman
Keeping with the photography theme, Henri Silberman’s work is certainly worth investigating too. He has a history of photographing the city from ground level and from the sky. Many of his cityscapes are done in black and white. However, there are times when he adds a pop of color into the mix. An example of such is the photograph, Yellow Cab on Brooklyn Bridge. Other cityscapes to check out at your leisure are Radio City Music Hall Crossing, Saint Patrick’s Cathedral NYC, Park Avenue at Night, Empire State Building East View and Gothic Bridge Central Park.
Marti Bofarull
Another artist known for his cityscapes is Spaniard Marti Bofarull. His paintings of the Big Apple tend to feature a soft around the edges look that is sure to appeal to fans of watercolors. The list of NYC scenes that he is known for painting includes a Panoramic View of Manhattan, Under the Brooklyn Bridge, South Manhattan, the Chrysler Building and On Park Avenue.
Ethan Harper
If you prefer the look of vintage advertisements, artist Ethan Harper’s work may be of interest instead. His cityscapes have a feel that’s reminiscent of old time calendar pages, pin ups and advertising posters. Works to consider adding to your city themed display wall are Bull Market, New York Central Line, Small Tour of New York I, Small Urban Icon I and Bridges of New York II.
