Photographer Tamir Sher Put Classic Paintings On A Turntable And Snapped Them Speeding Round

moray mair | Photography | May 29, 2012

Photographer Tamir Sher has created this series entitled ‘Masters On 45s’. A pretty simple concept really. Get hold of an old record player, place reproductions of old masters onto the turntable and photograph the images at varying speeds. A sort of re – mix of key painters in art history such as Van Gogh, Raphael, Michelangelo and van Eyck.

A mix of the old with the new on many levels. Do you recognise the paintings?
