After publishing NIGHT/SHIFT (Random House/Monacelli), a monograph of her color night photographs of overlooked urban zones, Lynn Saville embarked on a new but related series entitled “Vacancy.” This project enabled her to continue exploring fringe areas but also took her back to the city center, where, at night, stores shuttered by the Great Recession emanate a disquieting beauty. Saville’s Brooklyn Bridge work is part of a group exhibition, Brooklyn’s Bridges: Engineering As Art & Inspiration, on view at the Brooklyn Public Library’s Grand Lobby until September 18, 2011.

Wow! You capture an eerie inveigling emptiness. I have fond memories of your ICP night class some summers back……..
I think the photo superbly captures the “unsaid.”
Great work! One can feel the emptiness…lonely and sad.
