BEAUTY: Photography--Michelle and Chris Gerard

For their series The Artist's Diet, photographer duo Michelle and Chris Gerard researched favorite food, snacks, and eating rituals of famous authors and artists, and then recreated beautiful still life images illustrating the preferred food along with a caption telling how and where--and sometimes when--the artist or writer partook. The art direction for each image truly captures the milieu of each artist or author. I particularly like the Polaroid camera and silver brick wall of The Factory for Warhol, and the sumptuous tapestry and tea set for Proust.
