NOTES: Catalogued 1/96, DZ. "The Pink Stuff images seem to be conceived with more attendance to formal issues and a careful balance between the two frames. Typically, Barrow uses a classic centered composition, confronting his subject head on, its plane parallel to the camera. Rarely is there a complete landscape or vista in these views, the object of his attention being excerpts and peculiar, common details." --Inventories and Transformations; The Photographs of Thomas Barrow--, p. 68.

SUBJECTS:
architecture, wall
artifact, tube
