Paul Fisher


The 1960s were all about experimentation and pushing the envelope of art.  Paul Fisher's untitled 1965 collage above certainly did all that.  The male nude photo could have gotten Mr. Fisher arrested in some jurisdictions at the time, and by throwing in some armadillos and a Colonial era flag, we get magic. This was ahead of its time, even for the crazy 1960s.

  1. I wonder what that lady would have thought had she seen that man's peter dangling above her.

    1. Either horrified or delighted, and nothing in between. It was 1965 after all.

  2. Absolutely ahead of it's time. Daughters Of The American Revolution be prepared for another revolution that is coming!

  4. + il shock !
    nel 1965 Fisher deve aver voluto uno scandalo con questo fotomontaggio,
    uno scandalo delizioso.
