Arsenal 1

Urban portraits, landscapes, maritime journeys. Over four decades, Peter Hutton—painter, photographer, cinematographer, and director—created meditative, brilliantly shot, diary-like studies of places around the world. In long, silent takes captured on 16-mm film, these precisely observed urban explorations are somewhere between travelogue, mapping of the world, and memory montage.

Budapest Portrait (Memories of a City)

In BUDAPEST PORTRAIT, Hutton’s idea of a ‘naturalized’ texture of artificial urban landscapes is made manifest, the chiaroscuro of winter light, a feeling of loneliness and isolation.
