Delicious Wood-Nymphery!

Today on the blog we’re going to be exploring the partnership between photographers and musicians, and our first example is the new video collaboration between Ryan McGinley and Icelandic band Sigur Rós. You can see it here. Beware, there are boobs, ie:

The result is especially fun, because it basically reads as a behind-the-scenes piece on the making of McGinley’s work. I am a big fan of the latest McGinley project “I Know Where the Summer Goes”; there are some really beautiful images. I especially like the vertical, falling figures. You can see more here.

McGinley even has installation shots from the show on his site. Love that.
