Irving Penn Still Lifes I


Probably most people have been wowed by an Irving Penn
magazine cover or advertisement at some time...

A whole book of back-to-back photos really hits home
how memorable his arrangements are.

A modern take on still life, complete with fauna.

"pre-construction" as a modern version of deconstruction.

Playful arrangements of like shapes.

Graphic tension in photos that can draw out memories.

Even decay and the wormiest of apples have their
place in Penn's world of beauty.
