Traces by Edmund Sumner is a solo exhibition that showcases a wide range of Edmund Sumner’s architecture photography spanning four continents.
Stephan Schmid, Director of the Albumen Gallery, said that, “In many respects the actual building or architectural structure is only the starting point in the creative process of the images”. Edmund Sumner’s architecture photography creates aesthetic histograms capturing the traces of the spirit and history embedded in buildings.” A fixture in the world of international architecture photography, Edmund Sumner’s work is sought after for commissions from renowned international architects.
Alongside his commissioned work Edmund Sumner has built up an impressive body of work exploring through an artistic lens the rich fabric of cultural, historical and aesthetic aspects by which buildings shape us and the environments we live in. Edmund Sumner’s work is generating growing interest in the international collectors community. The exhibition will also feature popular hallmark prints like ‘Neelam Cinema’ in Chandigarh, India designed by Le Corbusier, ‘The Leaning Man’ and the interior studies of the Inagawa cemetery chapel (designed by David Chipperfield) with their mesmerising sense of tranquillity.
