Once again, Di over at Designer's Block had a great post that stopped me in my tracks! Frankfurt-born photographer, Karen Knorr's most recent Fable series is amazing.
Staged at the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, Karen uses taxidermy animal characters such as the cunning fox and the foolish pigeon, roaming grandeur rooms and corridors. "Using staging, technical virtuosity, playful humour and a pinch of deliberate awkwardness, Knorr teases some of the most exalted themes of art history out of the objects of elite material culture and into photographic terms." Fables, Lucy Soutter
Take a look at some of my favorites!
