The Bay Bridge by Air, Land, and SeaPost an Event »

The Bay Bridge by Air, Land, and Sea David Garnick, Port of Trade Winds Harbor, 2015, photograph

A joint show of works by Berkeley photographers David Garnick and Barrie Rokeach. Their photographs range from dramatical aerial views of the construction of the new eastern span, to close-ups taken at the base of the tower, and to sweeping landscapes from around the Bay Area. Garnick's photographs, from his series "Thirty-Six Views of the Bay Bridge", are inspired by 19th century Japanese woodcut artists, and are printed to recall the visual style of early 20th century hand-colored lithographs. Rokeach's photographs are from his commission to document the construction of the new span from the air. His aerial photos provide a window into the complex and often delicate process of erecting the superstructure.
