Perfume Genius As Egon Schiele

While we are all still at home, lots of people have taken the opportunity to find or rediscover a marvelous sense of creativity. One of the ways people are exploring creating is by staging recreations of famous works of art. The Getty Museum is one of the institutions encouraging people.

I am a big fan of this concept--I love when people recreate photographs of famous works of art, previously here, here, and here.

So I was delighted to come across these images--from three years ago!--of the extraordinary Perfume Genius (the nom de musique of singer-songwriter Mike Hadreas, previously here) in pitch perfect recreations of self portraits by the Austrian painter Egon Schiele, which appeared in the magazine Dinosaur.
