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-oriented inkjet print of a black-and-white photograph depicts a snow-covered plaza from above. Upper left, a pale van and dark truck sit on pavement. Geometric concrete walkways and stairs zigzag across the ground, creating sharp, stark patterns. Spindly trees and shrubs cast long, dark shadows onto the white snow. At bottom center, a trail of dark footprints dots a landing leading to a flight of stairs.
