Phil Marco
The Messenger

About the Item

Face Mounted Plexi. Aluminum braced archival print. Mysterious subject matter. ABOUT THE ARTIST Marco studied fine art at Pratt Institute and the Art Students League in New York. New York Times photography critic Gene Thornton called Marco “a Minimalist, whose images are sensual, whimsical, often surreal, always strong, and deceptively simple.” “I’ve had the pleasure of working with Phil Marco on a number of my films. Phil is a man of extraordinary talents. It seems that his passion is to take an everyday object or event, and show it in an entirely new and exciting way.” Martin Scorsese. Phil’s work is represented in MOMA, The Museum of the Moving Image, and The George Eastman Museum of Photography. His first photographs were studies for his paintings, before he launched a career in print advertising. He eventually became a Director / DP for film and television for a vast base of national and international clients with his wife Patricia as Partner and Producer. In the 1980’s and 90’s Phil was the go to person for Special Effects in Television and Cinema, also best known for his graphic conceptual still lives, and his consummate mastery of lighting, and design. He’s won many awards for his work, including numerous Cannes Lions, Cleo’s, a Grammy for his print work on the legendary “Tommy the Who” Album, and ASMP’s lifetime achievement award. He has also introduced several important technical innovations, including a new flash lighting system for cinema, and an award winning reflex viewing design for ultra high-speed cameras. But for all the technical expertise underpinning such work in extreme close-up and slow motion, Marco returns again and again to an ideal of simplicity.

  • Covid 19 - 2020-05-04- NY - Young Couple on Broadway - Street Scene Photograph
    By Jean-Luc Fievet
    Located in New York, NY
    This is a 39.5 x 59 inches archival giclée black and white print on archival exhibition paper. It is part of a limited edition of 6 plus 2 AP. Signed and numbered in the back. An edition of 10 and an edition of 20, smaller in size, are also available. This photograph is part of J. L. Fievet’s CV series, shot during the early months of 2020, during which New York City was in total lock down because of the Covid-19 emergency. Fievet spent day in and day out roaming the streets, documenting the breathtaking change that transformed the city. Fievet’s iconic photographs tried to seize the stark contrast between the surreal aspect of NYC empty streets with the resiliance of New Yorkers who kept pursuing normalcy within a unique situation. This joyful portrait...
