Lincoln Schatz Photo Install: Behind the Scenes

A look behind the scenes of a Lincoln Schatz photo install as seventeen large scale photographs are hung in the collection of a private corporate client in the spring of 2021.

Featuring works spanning The Lake Series, Transformations, Redwood Forests of California, The America Collection and The Lost Coast Series, all works from Lincoln Schatz Studio. These photographs, brought together and curated for this client, create a striking conversation around the varying landscapes of North America.

All of the photographs were brought up via the freight elevators in the building to three floors where they would be installed in lobbies and hallways. An install of this size requires two professionals at a minimum. We’ve come to rely on and deeply appreciate their incredible skill and care on these jobs.

The final touches are put in place as each of the photographs are hung. Wall labels identify each work with title, edition and year. Together these photographs span a number of years and projects.

Connecting these places and periods of time together was a fascinating and exciting challenge to this project. Creating a visual conversation of land, water, sky and life across three floors of this building. In the course of a day all of these works were hung, beautifully installed in their new home.
