About the artist:
Frank Schott grew up in Germany and attended the prestigious Academy of Arts in Cologne, studying under Professor Arno Jansen, who was an early influence.

Moving to California in 1998, Schott’s work has evolved to include the epic landscapes and deserts of the American West as well as architectural, conceptual and more formal environments from both home and his travels.

Influenced by a number of photographic peers and precursors such as Candida Höfer, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth, Jeff Wall, Michael Wolf, Gregory Crewdson, William Eggleston and Joel Sternfeld, Schott’s images successfully blend technical, conceptual and formal rigor with a decisive sense of composition and color.

Schott’s images have an iconic sensibility and give us a bird’s eye view onto humanity and its constructs. The specific is edged towards the abstract, often revealing the compelling and disjunctive moment where nature meets man.

Frank Schott was born in Cologne, Germany in 1962. He currently lives and works in San Francisco.
