Making the passage of time visible: Stephen Wilkes' Day to Night photography
If you were to gaze at a famous location from one spot for 30 hours without closing your eyes, you still wouldn't be able to capture all the details and events found in a panoramic photograph by Stephen Wilkes. From a fixed, usually elevated vantage point, he takes over 1,500 photographs over the course of a day and processes this wealth of visual information by meticulously composing individual images into a single tableau.
Day to Night presents 60 of these epic panoramas , created between 2009 and 2022 – from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Blue Lagoon in Iceland, from the Grand Canyon to Coney Island, from Trafalgar Square to Times Square: places and landmarks that are an integral part of our collective memory. Wilkes waited more than two years for permission to photograph Pope Francis celebrating Easter Mass in the Vatican. The result is a panel painting in which the Pontiff appears ten times. The volume also shows some of the countless details that are an essential part of the final composition and are small works of art in their own right.
Each image takes us on a fascinating journey from dawn to dusk through the world's most iconic locations . The daily pulsation of natural and man-made sights is experienced in a completely new way.
