Joel-Peter Witkin

    Joel-Peter Witkin est un photographe américain dont l'œuvre explore souvent des thèmes tels que la mort, les cadavres et divers parias de la société. Ses tableaux complexes évoquent fréquemment des épisodes religieux ou des peintures classiques emblématiques. La vision artistique distinctive de Witkin confronte le spectateur aux intersections difficiles de la vie, de la mort et de l'étrange.
