Asymmetry II Fine Art Photography

Asymmetry II Fine Art Photography is an innovative fine art photography series that explores the architectural complexity of the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany, through a distinctive abstract interpretation. Created by German photographer Michael Streckbein in 2017, this collection represents a sophisticated artistic examination of architectural form, challenging conventional perspectives through its focus on the building's highly asymmetric facade and reflective surfaces. The series demonstrates exceptional technical and artistic merit in its transformation of a well-known architectural landmark into abstract compositions that maintain fidelity to the original structure's design essence while presenting it in an entirely new visual context. Utilizing a Nikon D800 full-frame SLR camera and professional post-processing techniques in Adobe Lightroom, the photographer has crafted a series of images that deliberately deconstructs the familiar architectural elements into compelling geometric abstractions. The work is produced in two limited editions: a 30x30 cm version limited to 20 prints and a larger 70x70 cm version limited to 10 prints, each meticulously printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art Paper and presented either framed or mounted on AluDibond behind plexiglas. The series earned recognition with an Iron A' Design Award in the Photography and Photo Manipulation Design category, acknowledging its innovative approach to architectural photography and its success in creating a fresh perspective on a frequently photographed subject. Through its careful composition and technical execution, the work achieves a delicate balance between abstraction and architectural documentation, emphasizing the interplay of lines, angles, and reflections while challenging viewers to reconsider their perception of familiar architectural spaces.
