Photographer Recreates Famous Portraits With John Malkovich As His Model
0A well-known and celebrated photographer Sandro Miller has worked with the Hollywood A-Lister John Malkovich on many projects in the past but this new one is something else. This time Miller wanted to honor the photographers who have inspired him and shaped his career so he recreated some of those photographers’ most famous portraits with John Malkovich as his model.
“Malkovich, Malkovich, Malkovich: Homage to photographic masters” is a brilliant series of 35 recreations of the most influential and recognizable portraits from the art history. Working with Miller to create these shoots Malkovich had to transform into a number of characters, both male and female, which evidently wasn’t a big problem for this extraordinary actor.
Miller’s exceptional photography in combination with John’s amazing acting skills have proved that you do not need Photoshop in order to create something that is absolutely perfect. And funny. And legendary.
