Joel-Peter Witkin je americký fotograf, ktorého diela sa často zaoberajú témami ako smrť, mŕtvoly a rôzni outsideri. Jeho zložité kompozície pripomínajú náboženské scény alebo slávne klasické maľby. Witkinov jedinečný umelecký prístup skúma hranice ľudskej existencie a krásy.





This volume - investigating the work of a particular photographer, in this case, Joel-Peter Witkin - comprises a 4000-word essay by an expert in the field, 55 photographs presented chronologically, each with a commentary, and a biography of the featured photographer.
Few living photographers are as consistently controversial and provocative as Joel-Peter Witkin, whose work elicits hostility and admiration in equal measure. Shocking and compelling, the photographs in this retrospective collection reach to the outer limits of human nature. 100 full-page reproductions, printed in four colors.
