You know, I have really grown to enjoy the art of Joel Peter Witkin. His work may be slightly disturbing [if not excessively disturbing at times]. Yet the amazing detail and his sense of contrast and atmosphere is so impressive and astounding that I really can't imagine a more beautiful sight.
While he does use dead bodies and while that is very unconventional to say the least, he still has a great sense of beauty and form. His work is all about the sublime in life and the beauty in the disturbing and macabe.
with that I shall leave you too yourselves. [the image is one o Joel Peter Witkins]
