Description
Joel-Peter Witkin is renowned for his haunting, surreal, and often controversial imagery. His work explores themes of mortality, sexuality, deformity, and spirituality, frequently challenging societal norms.
Disciple & Master juxtaposes his own striking photographs with works by classical and modern masters that influenced him — such as Caravaggio and Picasso.
Disciple & Master is a study of artistic lineage, showcasing Witkin’s homage to historical aesthetics while reinterpreting them through his dark, macabre lens. It offers a profound insight into the interplay between inspiration and innovation in art, cementing his place as a radical visionary.
I bought this copy of Disciple & Master directly from the Etherton Gallery. Terry doesn’t fuck around.
