Architect OMA Rem Koolhaas
You can’t learn to be an artist. It’s not a craft or skill, those things make you a crafts(wo)man not an artist. The artist is the living embodiment of a deeply felt purpose of life, gained through introspection, and the necessity to manifest that.
Image processed with the Artisan panel. On a side-note, there's 1 spot left in my Berlin architecture and fine art workshop in October. I will go into topics very rarely or never discussed but foundational for the understanding of art and architectural photography. Info on my website.

No long exposure. This photo and the previous one are both handheld. No perspective correction in PS. Slight crop only.
Image processed with the Artisan panel. On a side-note, for the first time since 9 years when I last did so, I'll be soon announcing a multi-day architectural photography masterclass in a major European city for a very small group. More info on this and B&W architectural photography on my website soon.

I’ve come to the belief that beauty is not a thing or a quality that exists objectively in the external world. Beauty only exists in the individual as a subjective internal experience. It is an emotional response from the observer to something or someone. The objective of art is not to create beauty or to be beautiful. It is the objective of an emotional response such as beauty - to be manifested as art. Art therefore is the external manifestation of the internal experience of beauty by the artist.

Jean Nouvel's design of the National Museum of Qatar (NMoQ) was inspired by the Desert Rose Crystal, typically found in the Qatari deserts. As an architect Jean Nouvel places importance on designing a building in harmony with its surroundings

Image number 20 (# 6 here on Flickr) of a series of 29 fine art photos on modern architecture in Qatar commissioned by Qatar Tourism, taken earlier in 2022. And the 1st out of this sub-series of 7 images from the NMoQ. Check out my portfolio on my revamped website bwvision.com/architecture-gallery/ for the entire The Age of Modern Architecture in Qatar series up till now (26 photos already).
This series of 29 photographs have been exhibited in the M7 museum in Doha, Qatar from November 8th 2022 to January 23, 2023. The series of 29 reveals a strong connection between the architect’s design and its environmental and cultural context. I’ve tried to celebrate the architect’s design through my interpretation of it in relation to its environment. The tonal composition has been carefully designed to give visual weight to the architectural structures and pronounce their forms, while the spatial composition (object and space selection and arrangements) enhances the visual energy of the structures as they are juxtaposed to the serenity of the (back)grounds. A serenity that is inspired by the characteristics of a desert area. All 29 photos have been processed using the B&W Artisan Pro panel to speed up the process and increase accuracy.
At the moment I'm working on 24 new photos from Qatar that will form a new series.
Printed on Fujifilm Crystal Archive Pearl (Metallic C-Type), with Diasec Classic by DifoArt in the size of 150x100cm (60x40 inches).
