Misfits

This is the work of John Stezaker who is currently exhibiting at Whitechapel Gallery.  He uses old photographs and images taken from magazines and press shots, minipulating and collaging to create a different meaning, which often shows a witty side to the artist. Hollywood has a huge influence on his work, his fascination with the golden era of movie stars is shown in each of his collages. He takes a glamourous portrait and minipulates it, turning it in to a humorous image.
