Canon 450D

The camera I used for all my photo's so far was the Canon 450D. The settings we used was F11 apature,1/125 shutter speed and 200 ISO.

Jesper Molin



Jesper Molin was born in 1979. He is a well known photographer who has turned his passion for photography into art. It started already when he was 10 years old, when he received a camera as a present from a family member, continuously exploring and studying art and photography ever since.
His first real art project, in 1999, was a book called PALS which was dedicated to presenting and exploring friendship and his closest friends in pictures. Jesper Molin studied photography and art at The Photography School in Gothenburg for almost two years. Already when graduating from his art studies in 2003 he held his first solo exhibition.I like his work as it expresses the models emotions.Here is my interpretation...

Gilbert and George

    

Gilbert Prousch, sometimes referred to as Gilbert Proesch born 17 September 1943 in Italy and George Passmore born 8 January 1942 in the United Kingdom are two artists who work together as a duo called Gilbert & George. They are known for their highly formal appearance,manner and also for their brightly coloured graphic-style photo-based artworks.



Gilbert and George's approach to art has always been anti-elitist. There slogan was ‘Art for All’, they aimed to be relevant beyond the the art world. Although they work in a variety of media, but have always referred to all works as sculpture. Between 1970 and 1974 they made drawings ,referred to as Charcoal on Paper Sculptures, and paintings to give a more tangible form to their identity as ‘living sculptures' I like Gilbert and Georges work as it is abstract and colorful.  
This is the original version and underneath is my interpretation...
