Toronto boogie-woogie

Urban boogie-woogie

This started out as an album of photos I thought, for no reason I can specify, were inspired by Mondrian's Broadway Boogie-woogie. I have since included more photos that I hadn't considered Mondrianesque before but which seem similar.

Toronto boogie-woogie

For some reason this reminds me of Mondrian's "Broadway Boogie-Woogie". www.artnet.com/WebServices/images/ll25029lldUVoGFgpFeR3CfDrCWvaHBOcKR7C/piet-mondrian-broadway-boogie-woogie.jpg I know: weird, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Front Street Boogie-woogie

Toronto ====== Another shot that seems to me to have been inspired by Mondrian's Broadway Boogie-woogie , even though there's little resemblance. rdhinmn's suggestion that it was inspired by Escher appeals to me, too, though.

Urban boogie woogie 7

Looking south between Commerce Court North (left) and Commerce Court West in Toronto. The PiP at top left shows a view from inside the atrium (the structure at bottom). Another one of the photos I believe, for some reason, was inspired by Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie. Actually by a misremembered version of it. Here's a link to some more: www.ipernity.com/doc/fitzgerald/album/1347818?with=52036798

Happy Stiff Neck Sunday!

Looking south from the atrium between Commerce Court North and Commerce Court West in Toronto. The PiP shows another southward view from north of the atrium.
