Big Swing's photographic roots run deep. For years, principal Stephen Yadzinski has worked side by side with one of the world's most celebrated living photographers, Joel-Peter Witkin. Consulting with Witkin on a range of issues facing the photographer, whose complex tableaux often recall religious episodes or classical paintings and deal with such themes as death, corpses, and various outsiders, Stephen has helped refine the artist's complex photographic compositions and document his work. For Enfer ou Ciel (Heaven or Hell), a retrospective at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Stephen created a library of reproductions of the artist's original photographs.
