Cole Barash, Photographer, New York

Description

This stark black-and-white photograph by Cole Barash captures an urban scene in New York. A man is seen from behind, hanging from the rim of a weathered outdoor basketball backboard while performing pull-ups. Below, near the chain-link fence, another person stands holding a basketball and looking upward. The background features a tall brick apartment building with symmetrical gridded windows and bare tree branches extending across the upper portion of the frame. The gritty monochromatic finish and high-contrast tones emphasize the texture of the chain-link fence and the textured metal backboard.
