As many as 100 photographs might be layered into one of Israel/New York-based artist Shai Kremer’s images of One World Trade Center’s construction site, to which he had special access from 2011 – 2013. This photo turns construction into a pleasing geometry that balances ladders and girders while just hinting at the incredible amount of activity – on and behind the scenes – that went into rebuilding this site. (At Julie Saul Gallery through October 25th).
