"Architectural Abstracts" Brings Regularity to Profusion Photos Shown in Boro Hall President's Gallery This week is the last chance to see photographer Peter Neumann's month long show in the gallery on the 19th Floor of 1 Centre Street, which will close at the end of May. Here are photos from the opening of the show, from Friday, May 1, 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. The Gale M. Brewer Gallery show is derived from Mr. Neumann’s Architectural Abstracts series, as well as selections from his New York Reflections, Botanical Abstracts, and Landscape series. Peter's father was a still-life painter who took him to art museums in the 1950s. He opened a commercial still-life studio in New York in 1982, serving advertising agencies and magazine publishers, and he spent weekends and vacations shooting black-and-white landscapes with a large-format view camera in the tradition of Ansel Adams. In the 1990s, he created digitally generated 3D illustrations for magazines, work included in the 2001 Brooklyn Museum exhibition Digital: Printmaking Now. In 2010, he returned to working with digitally enhanced photography to produce his Botanical and Architectural Abstracts series. His work is in the permanent collection of the Brooklyn Museum as well as private collections and those of numerous corporations, including John Hancock, Simon & Schuster, TD Ameritrade, and the NYU Langone Medical Center.
