Revisiting the Classics

A Book & Photographs
by Don McCunn

Book Cover
 

Revisiting the Classics is both a book and a collection of photographs that celebrate the fine art of the masters from 1600 BC to the 1960s. Don McCunn merges his own photographs of live models into paintings and sculptures that have been enjoyed for centuries. He also uses the art of the masters as touchstones for original work.

The book includes brief, insightful "behind the scenes" vignettes of the masters and their art, McCunn's new images offer fresh appreciation and interpretation for the classics.

Comment

"As a collection, you have handpicked some very important and seminal works. I like the taking of a master's work and reinterpreting it with a new twist. You have produced a very interesting series here. KUDOS!"
