Gursky has always been a favorite photographer of mine. Maybe moreso when I was a much moodier 20-something, but always looooved the anonymity and isolation you feel from his work. Helped that they’re all very large prints(about 6’ tall), but still, it suits the subject. This one isn’t my ultimate fave, but it’s up there. #andreasgursky #gursky #photography #artilike #shanghai</p>http://gowanusfurniture.tumblr.com/post/51141047493http://gowanusfurniture.tumblr.com/post/51141047493Thu, 23 May 2013 06:58:21 -0400shanghaiphotographygurskyandreasgurskyartilike<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6b3e29384f24180d7942f43a5083a82d/tumblr_mn8zam8rEl1rp7srio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Inside the Grand Hyatt in Jin Mao Tower, Shanghai.
