Twins, Jerome Witkin and Joel-Peter Witkin are acknowledged as two of the greatest contemporary artists in their respective genres: Jerome Witkin is a painter and Joel-Peter Witkin is equally regarded as a master of his genre – a groundbreaking photographer famous for masterfully conjuring his uniquely surreal images. These identical twin brothers, who have enjoyed remarkable success over their respective careers spanning more than fifty years, have never exhibited together. Until now.
Twin Visions: Jerome Witkin & Joel-Peter Witkin brings to light two contemporary artists whose psychological studies and complex tableaus place them among the great heroic artistic traditions by depicting themes that are at once historic, personal and deeply psychological. The common threads in their work are as distinctive as are their differences and individuality.
