Yossi Milo Gallery is announcing an exhibition of photographs by Ezra Stoller (American, 1915-2004).
Fallingwater, Frank Lloyd Wright, Bear Run, PA
Gelatin Silver Print - 1971
A pioneer in the field of architectural photography, Ezra Stoller was commissioned by architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Paul Rudolph, Eero Saarinen, I.M. Pei, Marcel Breuer and Richard Meier, because of his unique ability to capture the building according to the architect's vision and to lock it into the architectural canon. His photographs convey a three-dimensional experience of architectural space through a two-dimensional medium, with careful attention to vantage point and lighting conditions, as well as to line, color, form and texture.
Seagram Building, Mies van der Rohe with Philip Johnson, New York, NY
Gelatin Silver Print - 1958
Ezra Stoller was born in Chicago in 1915 and graduated from New York University in 1938. He worked briefly with the photographer Paul Strand in the Office for Emergency Management before being drafted in 1942 into the U.S. Army, where he taught photography at the Army Signal Corps Photo Center in Long Island City. During his long career, he also photographed factories and technical facilities as well as residential projects. In 1961, he became the first photographer to be awarded the American Institute of Architects Gold Medal. His photographs have been exhibited internationally and belong to numerous museum collections.
TWA Terminal at Idlewild (now JFK) Airport, Eero Saarinen, New York, NY
Gelatin Silver Print - 1962
Ezra Stoller's gelatin silver prints include images of architectural interiors and iconic landmarks. Based on his background in architecture and industrial design, Stoller used a large-format camera to photograph monumental 20th century buildings, including the Guggenheim Museum, the TWA terminal at Idlewild Airport (now John F. Kennedy International Airport), the Seagram Building, the Salk Institute, Yale Art and Architecture Building and Fallingwater. In addition to well-known photographs of these locations, the exhibition will include lesser-known photographs of small homes and guest houses which provide a fresh look at the masterful eye that established Stoller as the preeminent photographer of modern architecture.

Kawamura-Ganjavian is a young architecture and design studio established in 2000 by Key Portilla-Kawamura and Ali Ganjavian. After meeting in London, where both were studying, they have worked in several countries: India, USA, Japan, Great Britain and Switzerland. In 2006 they set up their present base in Madrid.
Israeli designer Omri Barzeev created 'Lady Led', a desk lamp which uses three strong but small led lights.
The two legs of the lamp are made of oak wood : they can move up or down the body of the lamp, in order to adapt the lighting angle.
The Leds are inserted in a heat shrinking plastic tube, a feature that allows to hold the led lights without any screws.
