Gilman Contemporary is thrilled to introduce our clients to the work of Niv Rozenberg, an Israeli born and Brooklyn based photographer. Rozenberg explores the complex nature of urban architecture in his manipulated, and minimalistic photographs. 

Rozenberg's series "Boswijck" examines the architecture of Bushwick, Brooklyn. Through the elimination of any identifying context of the surrounding buildings and street, Rozenberg creates a unique understanding of place. The title of the series "Boswijck" is a nod to the original Dutch name for Bushwick, and ties the work to the past. His buildings may float in carefully selected colors, but they are each an individual relic with personality and deep connection to Brooklyn’s disappearing architecture. 

In “Summit,” Rozenberg employs a similar technique to create isolated monumental buildings from across New York City. The carefully selected background colors seem to reflect the building without explicitly referencing the context of the city.
