Mark Citret

I recently visited Santa Fe, NM this summer and walked into the Verve Gallery of Photography. Mark Citret (b. 1949) was showing his black and white photography and I was completely enthralled. [I'm seriously partial to lines, shapes and forms in photography,] and so there's my opinion. However, I really encourage you to check some of this work out on his website. In the mid to late 1980s he produced a large body of work with the working title of “Unnatural Wonders”, which is his personal survey of architecture in the national parks. He spent four years, 1990 to 1993, photographing “Coastside Plant”, a massive construction site in the southwest corner of San Francisco. But, my personal favorite is his gallery of "Artifacts." Very abstract stuff.
