Did You Know?

Cleveland’s University Circle neighborhood, which encompasses around 550 acres, contains numerous institutions and businesses that employ 30,000 people.

Description

Cleveland artist Garie Waltzer was commissioned to photograph University Circle for the Gund Foundation Annual Report in 2007. Her densely toned black-and-white photographs, many shot from elevated vantage points and employing deep vistas, reveal the Circle’s underlying structure: a graceful interweaving of nature and architecture united by elegantly drawn circulation patterns to produce a harmonious convergence of place and populace.
A square black-and-white photograph depicts an outdoor animal enclosure framed by dense trees. Centrally, a truncated tree trunk with two thick branches rises inside a pyramidal mesh net supported by wooden poles. A stone-lined stream curves around its base. In the lower right, a wooden building with a shingled roof is nestled among the foliage. Leafy branches frame the top and bottom edges, while trees fill the background beyond the enclosure.
