EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a Glass Service Station, designed by the visionary architect Arthur Brammer for the Direct Oil Service Company. Illuminated against the night sky in Minneapolis, Minnesota, this architectural gem stands as a testament to 20th-century style and innovation. The exterior of this glass block service station is truly a sight to behold. Its sleek lines and geometric shapes create an elegant and modern aesthetic that was ahead of its time. The use of glass blocks allows natural light to flood the interior during daylight hours, creating an inviting atmosphere for customers. What sets this photograph apart is its ability to showcase the versatility of lighting design. The color-changing lights add another layer of visual interest, transforming this already striking structure into a kaleidoscope of vibrant hues. Whether bathed in warm oranges or cool blues, each variation brings out different facets and textures within the glass blocks. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we are transported back to the 1930s when architecture was pushing boundaries and embracing new materials. It serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced world today, there is still room for artistic expression through functional structures. This print from Fine Art Storehouse invites us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship behind this unique service station but also reminds us that art can be found in unexpected places – even at gas stations!
