Phillippe Halsman: Photographer

Last week when I went to the High Museum in Atlanta I was exposed to photographer Philippe Halsman.  He was a friend of Salvador Dali and they collaborated on many projects. Some of the photos that they collaborated on were in the exhibit and were very intriguing.
One image that I thought was really awesome was the one below. Dali also did a painted version of this image that was shown at the High.
Check Halsman out if you have a chance. He has some very interested images.

  1. Dali is one of my favorites too. I had a roommate once, for about a year, who was all Dali all the time. I never saw either version of this one before. That skull is kinda/sorta laughing. Or something.
