Miles Aldridge re-imagines Mark Gertler’s ’Merry-Go-Round’
Follow the fashion photographer and provocateur as he interprets the British painter's artwork in honour of the newly redesigned Tate Britain

Aldridge chose British artist Mark Gertler's ‘Merry-Go-Round’, painted in 1916 at the height of WWI, and the film follows his creative process as he re-imagines it through his lens.
