Centre Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire, Geneva, Switzerland Possibly 1989 - 2006

"Centre Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire, Geneva, Switzerland" is a black and white photograph by Lewis Baltz, taken sometime between 1989 and 2006. The image depicts a stark, minimalist interior, a hallmark of Baltz's work. The photograph captures the sterile atmosphere of a modern research facility, showcasing rows of identical, sleek cabinets against a backdrop of white tiled walls and a gridded ceiling. Baltz's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create an almost photographic documentary-style aesthetic are evident in the photograph's composition and stark lighting. This photograph is a prime example of Baltz's focus on modern architecture and its impact on society. His work challenged traditional photographic practices and pushed the boundaries of the medium, prompting viewers to consider the relationship between man-made environments and human experience.
