William Theodore Van Doren. Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on paper, 16 x 20.
The New York Times today has a story and slide show on a project of the photographer Adam Stoltman. Stoltman has been photographing the same view from his Chelsea apartment window almost every day for three years – basically, his vantage point has a clear shot at the Empire State Building, which he’s recorded in all lights and all kinds of weather. Stoltman says the view has “almost an infinite capacity for visual wonder.”
From the perspective of my somewhat similar undertaking, I would suggest that the wonder literally is infinite, and much more than visual.
