Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects - Salesforce Tower SF Pt. 3

From the kayak. 10-23-2017

It's a new year and as of early January 2018 the Salesforce Tower construction is completed and work on fitting out the interior is progressing rapidly. The Jim Campbell light installation, set to crown the building will become the tallest piece of public art on Earth, and covering the top 150' will be visible from anywhere in San Francisco and beyond.  
Here's a look back at 2017 in no particular order!

It's as though I see more and understand better when the camera is between the works and my eye.

SFMOMA Fisher Expansion 1 year anniversary

The re-opening of SFMOMA after a 3 year hiatus couldn't happen quickly enough! That was one year ago; the museum has presented so many good exhibits ( Conner! Hernandez! Kentridge! to name a few) and Sight Glass has served countless delicious espressos since then. Here's a look back at a few of the thousands images I made during the construction and several of the final photographs which ran in practically every architecture and art publication.
