Witkin & Witkin tells the story of estranged identical twins, photographer Joel-Peter Witkin and his brother, figurative painter, Jerome Witkin. “Identical twins, yet for the most part strangers who remain despite their age, invested in maintaining their distance from each other. A film that explores their vast and important bodies of work, the impact that Joel-Peter Witkin’s work has had on popular culture from the Nine Inch Nails to Alexander McQueen, and in contrast how painter, Jerome’s work has been impacted by the events of his time. A painter who bears witness and a photographer who lives and creates from both the real world and the imaginary.”
