Eugène Atget's Paris, 100 years later

Atget, and Abbot after, were one of the great photographers who documented cities in flux. Paris for Atget and New York for Berenice Abbot.

Another artist who I've been thinking about is Michelangelo Antonioni. There's something about his juxtaposition of the characters' alienation with the spaces they inhabit that resonates with the pandemic. The phrase "social distancing" beautifully sums up so many of his films.
