Urban ZigZag Francoise Gaujour
NY metal stairs relief have been much photographed … They are part of the urban landscape and in the collective imagination … just like yellow cabs. Like everyone I like them because they are unique with their original ironwork, often beautifully carved … they give poetry to the red brick facades.

Brodsky & Utkin
From 1978 to 1993, the renowned Soviet “paper architects” Alexander Brodsky and Ilya Utkin created an incredible collection of elaborate etchings depicting outlandish, often impossible, buildings and cityscapes. Funny, cerebral, and deeply human, their obsessively detailed work layers elements borrowed from Egyptian tombs, Ledoux’s visionary architecture, Le Corbusier’s urban master plans, and other historical precedents in etchings of breathtaking complexity and beauty.
