I received this link from Nicole Marroquin, about how a contemporary photographer/ advertiser Cecilia Azcarate juxtaposes images of rappers with images from Art History. The juxtapositions are striking. I just thought this was really cool and an interesting idea for an art project to do with students. She also use tumblr to publish her findings, which would be a cool platform to use.
