The Art Newspaper may have found the art world’s first daredevil photographer. Meet Seattle-based artist Aaron Gustafson, who takes landscape pictures while skydiving from a plane. Using a custom-designed 4x5 large-format camera strapped to his helmet, the photographer snaps one shot per jump, while free falling through the air at speeds of more than 130 miles per hour. Gustafson has done around 25 such dizzying stunts, creating dramatic aerial views of the Shawangunk Ridge in New York, and the>>>Cascade Range and Puget Sound in Washington State. “This is what you’d get if you threw Ansel Adams out of a plane,” Gustafson says. Images of the modest artist’s work can be seen on his website: www.aarongustafson.net<<<
