PHAENO STUDY #1

 

Frohes neues Jahr!

 

Nachdem es zum Ende des letzten Jahres etwas still geworden ist hier auf schmaidt.de gibt es jetzt wieder neue Fotos. Zwischen den Feiertagen habe ich die Zeit gefunden, dass von Zaha Hadid geplante Phaeno in Wolfsburg zu fotografieren. Als großer Fan dieser Architektin hatte ich das Phaeno schon lange auf der Liste. Das Gute ist: Es ist fotografisch immens ergiebig. Das heißt, ihr könnt in nächster Zeit immer mal wieder vorbeischauen und die Serie verfolgen, die es von mir vom Phaeno geben wird.

 

Der erste Teil der Serie ähnelt vom Bildaufbau her stark anderen Bildern von mir von moderner Architektur. Ich liebe einfach die spitz zulaufenden Winkel im 1:1-Format. Gerade bei Zaha Hadid konnte ich aber keinesfalls auf diese Perspektive verzichten, da die extrem spitz und dynamisch zulaufenden Gebäude-Ecken klarer Bestandteil ihrer Architektur sind. Schon bei ihrem Erstlingswerk, dem Feuerwehrhaus in Weil am Rhein, zeigt sich dies ganz deutlich und hat sich bis heute in ihrem Stil gehalten.

 

So far,

Martin

PHAENO STUDY #1

 

Happy new year!

 

After there were not that much photographic news in the last weeks in 2014 by myself, I found the time to shoot the Phaeno building in Wolfsburg (Germany) by the architect Zaha Hadid. Since I'm a great fan of her, the Phaeno has been on my list for a long time. The good news is: The building offers so many interesting perspectives such that there will be a whole series of photos of that building in the next days/weeks.

 

The first part of the series is somehow quite similar with respect to composition than other fine art architecture shots by me. I simply love these dramatic lines and angles in the 1:1 format. And especially with a building of Zaha Hadid, I cannot ignore this perspective since these lines and angles are a characteristic part of her architectural work from her beginnings on.

 

So far,

Martin

 

PS: The exact data of the capture can be found on www.schmaidt.de in my blog.

Study, Recently relocated from Delaware to Alabama, a few photos from the new home now that we are unpacked and actually have window coverings on most windows.

'The setting sun glowed through the large clock face window, casting rays of amber light around the lofty study.

 

The room was filled with many curious items, bizarre taxidermy creatures hung on display, some of avian or mammal form, and some of cephalopod variety.

 

Along side these creatures, various shields of shapes and sizes were scattered along the walls, depicting ornate styles and tribal designs. Muskets, swords and other trinkets were placed alongside large and small picture frames.

 

To the right a varnished grandfather clock ticked away, surrounded by a bust of an Egyptian pharaoh and a bizarre mechanical helmet. To the far right stood a weathered uniform with ornate markings.

 

'My old uniform' Arthur commented, placing a hand on one of the sleeves.

 

'It's seen better days' he remarked.

 

Evelyn looked over to the left, beyond the large spiral staircase stood an ornate green desk piled with trinkets, papers, letters and glasses. Slumped nearby was another stack of papers.

 

'You certainly have a lot of paperwork' she said.

 

'Research papers, documents and other 'confidential' items' he said, shrugging his shoulders.

 

Evelyn walked over to the desk, a large leather armchair sat nearby, next to it was a small table with a leather bound sketchbook.

 

She picked it up, brushing the thin layer of dust that had accumulated on it's surface.

 

She flicked through, studying the dozens of sketches and notes, many depicted monsters and creatures, along with observational notes, anatomy cross sections and up close details.

 

'So many different creatures' she gasped 'You drew all of these?'

 

'I find it useful for my research' Arthur said modestly 'It's good to make a note of what you're encountering'.

 

'How long have you been doing this for?' Evelyn queried.

 

Arthur scratched his head, slightly avoiding eye contact for a few seconds.

 

'Feels like a lifetime' he laughed.

I resisted buying this for a long time, but it's like being taken over by the Borg, resistance is futile. Anyway I really like it. I like that it has an actual working light, & electrical outlets (non working) that you can plug things into, and drawers that open. I love the chair too, I wish I could get a bunch of them.

This is blurry, but too cute not to share. I have been doing some studying at the kitchen table (easier to sit at for reading & note-taking), but Ben does his best to keep things light. This poor butterfly has seen better days, but we still love tossing it around!
