Joel-Peter Witkin Książki

, pages unnumbered, this edition limited to 5,000 copies, illustrated in black and white throughout, complete

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.

Disciple & Master vereint Witkins Fotografien mit den Bildern, die sie inspirierten. Werke von Fotografen wie Charles Negre, Walker Evans, Horst und Cartier-Bresson werden mit Witkins fesselnden Visionen kombiniert. Der Text des Fotografen beleuchtet die komplexe Beziehung zwischen jedem Bildpaar.
