Joel-Peter Witkin, Man with No Legs, 1984
From the Cleveland Museum of Art:

For almost four decades, Witkin has staged and photographed bizarre scenes, often incorporating people with physical deformities and severed limbs. Referring to art history and classical mythology, he manipulates his prints to create the rich surface quality usually acquired through age. Although Witkin’s photographs focus on disenfranchised members of society, they also reveal the humanity of his subjects.

Upcoming Events:

May 18th, NYC. Will be holding a small workshop - Pinup Style Photography - with Model Kacie Marie.

The workshop is intended for those who want to learn different techniques and shoot a world class model Kacie Marie. This is not a free shooting event, but each photographer will have independent shooting time and assistance. There will be no nudity, just sexy pin up style also. Any questions please contact me via email.

This event will be limited to 4 participants and will be in the late afternoon/early evening. 3 indoor setups and some night shooting out in the streets for the last set. Time will be tentatively from 5pm to 10pm. The price is $250.00. If you are interested please send me and email to claim a spot. Shooting times subject to change some, and the location is to be set soon. Hoping for Manhattan but might be Brooklyn as a fallback.

More details will follow this weekend.

With that said, I will be in NYC from the 16th to the 20th or 21st. Interested in booking? Rates reasonable. Will have limited time available due to other commitments.

Other projects - Number one. Get a new camera. My 60D needs to go in for repair and my new old 5d doesn’t do video, so looking at getting a 6D as soon as I can afford it. Considering doing an indigogo campaign to help with this but I do have paid gigs coming up so eventually I will get there. I’ve never really had to worry about money before and things are different now. This is a good thing.

Later in the Summer Kacie and I are trying to put together a good 10 minute short film and this fall I have a big plan involving California.

I realize there are many many fans out there and I appreciate each of you. I hope if I do decide to do an Indigogo that there would be support.

Shooting with Cam Damage this weekend, so pretty excited about that as well.

Nuff rambling. Need to contact me? - email chipwillis at gmail

life:

In 1960, LIFE magazine assigned Eve Arnold, who died in January 2012 at the age of 99, to document the days and nights of Malcolm X, the controversial and intensely charismatic public face of the Nation of Islam.

On the anniversary of his death, we revisit her set of photos that surprisingly enough never made it into the magazine. (well, ours at least)
