20 More Interpretations Of The Last Supper. New For Easter 2011.



above: beautiful photographic depiction of just the hands from The Last Supper

Since Jesus came back from the dead (according to some), so shall my post on interpretations of one of the world's most famous paintings, The Last Supper:


In 2008, I wrote a post called "The Last Supper. And the one after that. And after that. And then, even more." in which I introduced you to the most well known Last Supper painting by Leonardo da Vinci as well as many other versions created by famous artists and photographers, like Andy Warhol and David LaChapelle.

Then, in 2010 I shared with you "The LOST Supper & Other TV Casts As The Famous Painting" which featured images from MASH to The Simpsons posed as the famous painting.

Below is a whole new slew to add to the growing collection of Last Supper homages by various photographers and artists.

Mounted Life. Stunning Taxidermy Photography By Danielle van Ark.




The Mounted Life is a series of photographs by Royal Academy of Arts graduate Danielle van Ark. She visited the storage and archives of museums around the world and found animals in surroundings and environments so far from their natural habitats she was struck by the inherent contrast and photographed them.

The series makes the most of the juxtaposition of wildlife and industrial imagery. The images are disturbing, funny, haunting, confrontational and even touching in their composition and subject matter.

The artist now wields backstage access to 33 museums across Europe and North America, and she aims to package the entire collection into a book.
