I had the fortune to photograph two art installations at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta on Tuesday. I consider myself lucky because I love art, I love the High and not too many people get to hang around as preparators and registrars inspect and hang priceless pieces of art. The first installation included works by Paul Cezanne, Vincent van Gogh, and other masters aptly entitled “Cezanne and the Modern: Masterpieces of European Art from the Pearlman Collection”. The next installation included Luca Della Robbia’s famed marble cantoria panels from part of the organ loft of Florence Cathedral as well as hand decorated choir books, a lectern and much more. “Make a Joyful Noise: Renaissance Art and Music at Florence Cathedral” details the sights and sounds of the famous Italian landmark. Both of the new installations will be on display at the museum through Jan. 11 of next year. I know I’m planning on checking them out once they are fully ready for the public!
