Have you ever stopped, looking at a bridge spanning a river or canyon, and wondered how it came to be or who first conceived it? Bridges can be truly captivating: sometimes for their height, sometimes for their shape, sometimes for their curves, and sometimes for their liveliness and dynamism. Some blend so seamlessly into the landscape that you barely notice them, while others scream with brightness and grandeur, demanding attention. Bridges come in countless variations, from behemoth steel giants to charming little wooden ones. And each one carries its own story about the people, places, and ideas that cross from one side to the other.
Marc Majewski’s bridges are all alive, with their own history and character. The famous Golden Gate in USA, the curvy Python Bridge in the Netherlands, the Umshiang Double-Decker Root Bridge in India, the El Marco Bridge connecting Spain and Portugal – if you’ve never been there, after “Bridges” you’ll be tempted to see them in person.
