I came across these fabulous photos while surfing. They are from August Bradley's
Hasselblad Masters
books. One with a circus theme, one about a man in a dark room. They weren't marketed as fashion photography, but that's exactly what they looked like to me. The haunting art direction has a look of wickedness and decay. The circus photos look like a witch stirring up trouble, a wrangler of evil crows, a black widow and a sculptural gown. The man in the dark room looks like it could be Hamlet contemplating death, or an Edgar Allen Poe type alone with his tormentors...
