Photographer crush - Scott Dietrich


Image by Scott Dietrich.

I know Scott from the University of Arizona photography program. I caught up with him at the Society for Photographic Education conference last year in Chicago. He lives and works in Wisconsin/Chicago, and somehow managed access to architectural models by Frank Lloyd Wright in Taliesin. He’s been photographing them and the images are fantastic; mostly because they have been neglected for many, many years. They are covered in dust, torn and broken. So they are images not so much of Wright’s amazing architecture, but rather a post-apocalypse vision of Wright’s work. Awesome.
