Atmospheric Perspective in Urban Landscapes
Diana Horowitz painted landscapes of New York City from the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center for 15 years until May, 2001. A few years after 7 World Trade Center was rebuilt in 2006, she took up residence on the 48th Floor—10,000 square feet of unleased raw space that provides a 360-degree view of the city.
