More information

Barbro Östlihn målade denna målning till sin separatutställning i New York på Tibor de Nagy Gallery 1968. Samtliga målningar i utställningen var just husfasader från Manhattan. Under denna period var det många hus som revs för att ge plats åt höghusen. Då Östlihn promenerade runt i staden med sin kamera kom hon att dokumentera en storstad i förvandling genom sina stiliserade målningar av husfasader.
