Old red dallas county courthouse

Old Red: Dallas County Courthouse

Piece description from the artist

The Dallas County Courthouse, built in 1892 of red sandstone with rusticated marble accents, is a historic government building located at 100 South Houston Street in Dallas, Texas. Also known as the Old Red Courthouse, it became the Old Red Museum, a local history museum, in 2007. It was designed in the Richardsonian Romanesque style of architecture by architect Max A. Orlopp, Jr. This is my representation of a modern day daguerreotype of Old Red. It's like looking back upon days of future's past. I wonder how many lives were effected what people felt when they passed up the stairs into the courthouse where their fate would be decided.

About Kevin Foresman

Dallas, TX

Observing the photographic fine art of Kevin Foresman is like participating in a spiritual ritual, or an abstract meditation on form and content. His photography and digital imaging expresses his joy of capturing  the interplay between light, darkness, color and the absence of, delicately holding onto a momentary flash, a slight glimpse into the energetic matrix that surrounds and sustains us, yet mostly goes unnoticed, unobserved and unseen. Kevin's work is an attempt to define higher conscious spiritual abstractions as tangible expressions within our seemingly singular three dimensional reality. Some of his influences are Alex Grey, Stanley Kubrick, Barbara Kasten, David Lynch, Christopher Nolan, Man Ray, Ola Kolehmainen, Angie McMonigal, David Bowie, David Byrne, Peter Gabriel and Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre.
