TWA Terminal Hotel, New deals York JFK #10

Eero Saarinen's masterpiece, the TWA Flight Center at JFK airport. This building is a mid-century jewel, a beautiful yet functional building that served as a terminal until 2001.

Saarinen's curves and shadows at sunrise! His shapes take on a totally new aspect when the sun rises and slices into the space through the 30 foot-tall east windows. These overhead passageways and their railings are beautifully lit in the morning sun

I stayed at the hotel for two days during the early stages of the pandemic, waiting for my flight back to Los Angeles. It was deserted, because of the pandemic. It was a unique opportunity to see this architectural wonder undisturbed by masses of people and noise. The dynamic, endlessly curving shapes, the mid-century style, the instant evocation of an era when travel was a luxury – it was all there. deals The evening and night brought soft light, interior curves were strong, small recesses were dark, the TWA signs in their bright red contrasted to the grey concrete. I knew sunrise would provide stunning light and shadow, so I was up before dawn and shot for 3 hours, admiring the structural complexity, the long shadows from the Eero Saarinen designed chairs and tables, the hand rails down the main stairs.

This series has been shown in numerous galleries and won a Silver Medal from the prestigious 2021 Prix de la Photographie, Paris (PX3)
