As creepy and disgusting some (most) of these photos are; from a art perspective, he's genius.
Why do these artists work with him? Because his work is so minimal yet so complex all at the same time.
You do have to admit that his work has became way more tamed working with high profile artists and models.
He's definitely talented in the photography area and he's starting to build his credentials with music videos too.
All in all I do find him a creep, but most geniuses (within reasoning) all seem creepy and outlandish, am I right?
