ulie Taymor, the
genius behind Broadway���s
Spiderman, Lion King
and a dozen other smash
theatrical hits made a
pilgrimage to New York
state���s least populated
county, Allegany. She
journeyed there to witness
firsthand the ingenious
photographic work of Brian
Oglesbee, in particular, the
Aquatique images from his
Water Series photographs.
Her team was stymied:
how could Oglesbee
achieve such wondrous
effects? Were they, in
fact, computer facilitated?
The images, displaying a
combination of artifacts
taken from nature, textiles
and water with female
figures floating just below
or above them, intrigued
Team Taymor.
