Paris Abstract by Michael Wolf features Parisian Roof Tops as Abstract Paintings

When I was taking photography classes, I was obsessed with abstractions and geometry in photos. I used to obsess over framing and composition so that all of the lines in the frame would complement one another. Things have changed and become less obsessive in the years that followed, but I do like to think back to when linear objects would be the focal points of my shots. One photographer, however, has taken it to the next level with his recent collection of work that is currently being exhibited at the Robert Koch Gallery in San Francisco, CA.

Michael Wolf’s Paris Abstract may look like abstract paintings, but are actually photographs of Parisian rooftops that focus in on their geometry and architecture. Viewers will get lost in the linework of his photos and truly question whether they’re actually photographs or paintings. Wolf is no stranger to controversy as his other recent projects featured him entering screen shots from Google’s Street View into a contest and taking photos of people in their apartments without consent. If you find yourself in SF, the Paris Abstract exhibition will be on display through the end of next week.
