title: The Sacred Heart: An Atlas of the Body Seen Through Invasive Surgery
author: M.D. Aguilera-Hellweg Max
description: An accident cost professional photographer Max Aguilera-Hellweg the use of his right arm for a year. Forced to work with a tripod and the larger format of 4-by-5-inch film, he was providentially assigned to photograph a neurosurgeon as she worked. This ultimately gave birth to <i>The Sacred Heart</i>, a magnificent and utterly disturbing collection of photographs of the human body seen through invasive surgery.
