About the Item

Cover Shooting for Rolling Stones Magazin with Brad Pitt by Mark Seliger. All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. Mark Seliger's famous 1999 Rolling Stone magazine cover shoot featuring Brad Pitt is one of Seliger's most iconic celebrity portraits, perfectly demonstrating his conceptual approach to portrait photography. The image plays with themes of constraint and freedom, masculinity and vulnerability. The face mask creates an interesting visual metaphor - despite being a restrictive device, Pitt appears completely uninhibited, laughing joyously. The desert setting and shirtless presentation strips away the typical Hollywood glamour, creating a raw, almost primal image that contrasts with Pitt's usual polished appearance in films and media. From the Olympus of the music industry to the Oscar portrait studio - Mark Seliger's oeuvre is a tribute to art and pop culture in modern America. Starting as a magazine photographer who went on to shoot over 100 Rolling Stone covers, Seliger is known for his meticulously planned portraits. Whether highly conceptual or intuitive, his photographs of David Bowie, Nirvana, or the Rolling Stones radiate an intellectual coolness. Seliger's portraits walk the fine line between hyper-reality and surrealism, revealing a sense of honesty that's unique in celebrity photography. His work stands out for combining technical precision with an almost painterly attention to composition and lighting.
