While you admire these great works of art, something may catch your eye. At first glance, they may look innocent enough, with similar enough imagery, however something just isn’t right.
What you are in fact witnessing is the work of American photographer Sandro Miller who recently collaborated with the great John Malkovich to recreate some of history’s most famous portraits. The project is titled, “Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich: Homage to photographic masters.” Possibly inspired by a certain scene in Spike Jonze’s Being John Malkovich.
Miller recently spoke to Chicago’s Catherine Edelman Gallery:
John is the most brilliant, prolific person I know. His genius is unparalleled. I can suggest a mood or an idea and within moments, he literally morphs into the character right in front of my eyes. He is so trusting of my work and our process… I’m truly blessed to have him as my friend and collaborator.
Enjoy each and every one of these hilarious remakes!
