AIASF: Architectural Photography Exhibition

The American Institute of Architects, San Francisco chapter (AIA San Francisco) and Center for Architecture + Design present Architectural Photography, an exhibition featuring the creative work of a group of talented Bay Area architectural photographers. These images convey more than pictorial representations of a static building or space, but are expressions of the architect's vision through the photographer's filtered camera lens.

Modern architectural photography extends beyond simply documenting a building. It is an artistic endeavor that focuses on the photographer's role to decide what information to include and what information to leave out, what is the best way to convey the architect's vision, what emotions to elicit from the viewer, and ultimately what best captures the soul of the building or space. Making these decisions not only requires technical knowledge and skills, but also a tremendous amount of creativity. As a spectator it is important to appreciate these photographs, not just for their documentation qualities, but also view them as works of art in their own right.
