David LaChapelle’s new show with Paul Kasmin dismantles iconic celebrities both literally and figuratively. Reminiscent of Cindy Sherman, the artist’s medium format photographs of wax figures contain his trademark sexuality and creative use of light and shadow. Still Life is on view through January 19th 2013 at Paul Kasmin Gallery, 293 Tenth Avenue, New York. Photo and text Juliana Balestin
