José Manuel Ballester: Concealed Spaces

mia_spaces

Not many artists have the nerve to evict Jesus and his apostles from one of history’s most famous paintings, but José Manuel Ballester is the rare talent willing to match wits with Leonardo da Vinci and give a fresh interpretation of the Renaissance master’s iconic work. Ballester has removed all the figures from da Vinci’s The Last Supper in his new photo-based series, in which he reconceptualizes masterpieces from art history by amputating all living beings and erasing any sign of action from the iconic opuses
