Best of the Blank: May 2007

On BoingBoing, they point to a very cool gallery page featuring recent photographic work from Thomas Allen, who also happens to have once been my photography teacher! He used to teach photography at the U of M, he might still, I can't be bothered to check. He's always worked with photographing collage-illustrations. In this series he lifts figures from pulp novels and creates these interesting dynamic scenes removed from their backdrops, and using the books themselves as settings. Check out the full series here.
