Description: Photographer Robert Alters MIT degree is in the photography of architecture. His art disregards both the rules of photography and, explicitly, architectural photography. The large-scale ink jet printsprinted on cotton rag paper or canvascreate a purposeful contradiction of surface and feeling.
Of this work Alter writes: The La Defense Portfolios are for me a way to observe and try to understand the corporate and commercial world that we are building for ourselves and that we must inhabit. The photographs have been taken over the past six years and are my exploration into this somewhat confusing and intimidating oversized world.

My photographs are not condemnations or political statements. They are visual interpretations of the awe and diminution that we humans feel in the presence of these giants. www.alterarts.blogspot.com
