Guggenheim by Tom Rossiter: Architecture Inside Out

The ceiling has come loose and drifted into the sky. Nobody on the plaza has noticed.

Guggenheim; Architecture Inside Out is a work by Tom Rossiter, a photo printed on aluminum. Fine art photographers make composites like this for collectors and architecture lovers, and Rossiter takes apart Frank Lloyd Wright's spiral, among the most recognized buildings of the 20th century, and reassembles it. The white exterior opens to show the ramps inside, with visitors spilling onto a crosswalk. Above, the great skylight hangs in a blue cloudy sky, dotted with red discs. Pale, ghosted images of artworks appear at either side. Thirty-six inches wide and 36 high.

Wright might have had notes. He usually did.
