Laurel Mall “Looks can be Deceiving” (2010-2012)
Taken in the Laurel Mall in Laurel, Maryland with a Canon Rebel XS. At one point Laurel Mall was working on bringing business back through aggressive advertising and offering competitive leasing to new retailers. The “Looks can be Deceiving” campaign was plastered all over the mall’s interior to generate excitement for this new era. Unfortunately it wasn’t to be. The retailers weren’t interested, shoppers weren’t interested and vacancies continued to rise. Laurel Mall opened to huge fanfare in October of 1979. In 2012 the last tenant locked their doors and the mall was closed and later completely demolished. The land where the mall stood is now an outdoor “towne centre” with shopping and restaurants.
Open edition studio giclée on 8.5 × 11 in. heavy stock hot press archival cotton rag matte paper.
Signed and dated with archival ink on the verso.
All of the works on thisisdanbell.com are produced by Dan Bell in his Baltimore studio. Each giclée is printed on archival hot press cotton rag matte paper using the highest quality pigment inks. The paper is museum quality and acid free. Every giclée is closely inspected and signed before being carefully packed for delivery. This Is Dan Bell Media offers a 100% money back guarantee (shipping included) if you’re not completely satisfied with your purchase. If you have any questions send Dan an email at thisisdanbell@gmail.com.
