Pictures of the Week: Abelardo Morell Edition
I just started a photography night class, so expect to see lots of photography inspiration over the next few months! A friend emailed me yesterday with a number of amazing photographers I'd never heard of before (Thanks S!) and I am now in love with the work of Abelardo Morell.
One of the things he does is he creates a camera obscura in a room then photographs the result, creating these wonderful magical inside/outside images. Enjoy!
Manhattan View Looking South in Large Room, 1996
Houses Across the Street in Our Bedroom, Quincy, MA, 1994
The London Eye inside the Royal Horseguards Hotel, London, England, 2000
Boston's Old Customs House in Hotel RoomI, 1999
Grand Canal Looking West Toward the Accademia Bridge in Palazzo Room Under Construction, 2007
The Philadelphia Museum of Art, East Entrance in Gallery #171 with a deChirico Painting, 2006
Which of these images is your favorite? Do you like Abelardo Morell's work?

oOo I learned about this photographer in design class, i really like the first picture
this is pretty trippy :)
oh god way trippy
okay. I dont really have a fav
That's cool. I wish it were right side instead of upside down though.
I also studied Abe Morell in photography; his photographs are all wonderfully unique. He did a pretty interesting version of Alice in Wonderland, in case you haven't heard about it. As far as I know you have to special order the book though.Â
4 5 6
