Architecture Center Houston presents "Beautiful City - Empty City," an exhibition that showcases the architectural photography by Leonid Furmansky shot in downtown Houston during the pandemic.
Selected from a portfolio titled Oil Towers, these images depict the city we know so well as a mostly empty and evocative canvas for exploration. The isolation experienced due to COVID-19 is visible in the vacant, frozen quality of the images. Shot largely at night, these images see downtown in a new way. They invite speculation not only about the quality of Houston’s architecture, but also the systems and economies that both finance and maintain it.
There will be several lectures, a walking tour, and a photography workshop for kids associated with the exhibition.
The exhibit will be on display until January 19, 2024.
