Remake Photo Project
Adobe and popular creative blog Booooooom recently announced their Remake photo project, a competition in which photographers are invited to ‘remake’ a work of classic art as a photograph.
The results have in some cases brought a new insight into classic works of art, often with a hint of humour, and always with integrity. What’s really interesting about the project is how peoples views of these classic artworks differ to our how we originally interpreted that piece of work. Take a look at more submissions here.
