The art of the skyline in the skyway


Turtle Bread Co. in the One Financial Plaza skyway is hosting an excellent set of photos from Local Boy Photography studio. The large panoramas capture the color and character of the Minneapolis skyline in different moods. My favorite piece is a 58" long panorama of the skyline under a storm-laden sky. Scalloped low clouds barely clear the antennae on the roofs of the tallest buildings.  Nearby, in a black and white photo of sublime tones, charcoal washes of rain brood behind the crisp, mirror-planed image of a downtown that is part hyperreal, part dream.
Of course, that isn' t in the picture above. You have to go see them to know which one I mean.
