Recreating famous art

In 2011, Adobe created a challenge for students in the UK to use photography to recreate famous works of art. The rules: "The idea is to put all your creative energy into re-creating and re-staging the image... Please reference classic works of art, I’m not looking for remakes of contemporary artwork, album covers, or fashion photography." The deadline has long past so there are plenty of submissions to look at. I may try doing this work some of my favorite works. It's a beautiful and creative idea. I especially like those submissions that added a modern twist to the recreation. 

Find these submissions and more at booooooo.com.  You really should look, they're amazing.
