Photographer Frank Thiel is set to debut his latest body of work at the Sean Kelly gallery in New York. The show, titled 'Nowhere is a Place,' centers around one of the most famous glaciers in the world, Perito Moreno, which is located in Patagonia, Argentina. A hotspot for tourist attractions, people can now revel in its beauty from afar (from really afar) thanks to Frank Thiel.
Measuring "18-miles long and 3-miles wide with an average height of 240 ft above the surface of the water and a depth that can reach over 550 feet," as reported by My Modern Met, Frank Thiel's exhibition will include a 30-foot long, five-panel photograph of the leading edge of the Perito Moreno glacier to really capture its epicness.
