Todd Eberle to receive 2017 Julius Shulman Institute Photography Excellence Award

Todd Eberle rose to global recognition for his photos of Donald Judd's art and furniture at the artists' request at the Chinati Foundation in Marfa, Texas and around the world in the 1990s. His photos were published in “Donald Judd Raume/Spaces” (Hatje/Cantz) in 1993. This formative experience influenced Eberle's works, which are collectively characterized by a sharp sense of control, proportion, and symmetry.

Eberle will be presented with the JSI Award on May 4, during opening night of his “Empire of Space” exhibition at the WUHO Gallery. Visitors will get a chance to see Eberle's array of portraits of architectural greats and cultural icons.

“I learned at a very young age that memorable things are created by individuals with ideas, and that has always been my primary interest; the window, as it were, into a world that could only have been created by those individuals, singularly, or collaboratively,” Eberle said in a statement. “Those that make such a mark are those I’m attracted to making photographs of.”
