photographs are stunning and are an interesting observation of the fabric of cities. Currently Burdeny's exhibit, Sacred and Secular is showing at the at 1070 Homer Street. There will also be an artist Q & A, Feb 20, 1pm. Mark your calendars! ps. These images don't do the real photographs any justice. You have to see these photos in person to really appreciate them!

Sacred and Secular is an ongoing series of photographs that depict urban edge conditions and built environments throughout the world. In the course of Western architecture and urbanism there is a long history attached to the Ideal, Visionary and the Fantastic as notions to create built space. For his newest series 鶹ýӳphotography artist, David Burdeny, sees the scale, colour and density of the urban fabric always generating a unique vernacular. When removed from its context, the vernacular simply becomes kitsch such as the Bellagio in Vegas, or Mont St Michelle vs. Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Spanning across the globe, the locations of his new images are often distant in latitude, typology and syntax, commencing with the category defying works of 21st century “Starchitects” and including recent or ancient manifestations in Dubai, China, Egypt, Europe, Greenland, USA and Canada.
