Steven Klein with Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Manson & White Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were featured in this photoshoot, which is a demonstration of our violent culture and media. The work was created by my favorite fashion photographer, Steven Klein, for W Magazine. Although the work comes from a photoshoot last season, the work is still running on his site. The tour, shown in this video, features cryptic violent images. The work starts with a picture of a hand (Brad Pitt) holding a small shiny golden gun with a blurry background shot of the news on TV. Supermodel Chad White and a shocking Marilyn Manson star in a series of shots that shows Manson with a revolver in his hand sitting over the bleeding corpse of Chad White. He is seen enjoying a cocktail next to the dead body in other shots. Another series shows real-life couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt as a typical American couple watching TV which evolves into domestic violence with Pitt assaulting Jolie in bed. The images work with a haunting background sound that amplifies the message. Violence is all around us in the media. You can see more cryptic messages and images at his site.
