Wolfgang Staehle's time-lapse photography projects began in the mid-90's with a webcam real-time depiction of the Empire State Building, photographed every ten seconds and the images transmitted over the internet. His April-May 2009 exhibition at Postmasters Gallery presented five projects based on the same concept (one of them a video), and made over the last several years, with the selection of sites alluding to Thomas Cole's series of allegorical landscape paintings (at the New-York Historical Society), "The Course of Empire."
