Re: Joel-Peter Witkin
Your statement is certainly true of Manson. His fans are genre specific. I'm not sure you can say the same about Witkin. It could be said he might be doing this to draw attention to his work. People who enjoy photography though are comfortable crossing all sorts of genre lines. For instance, people can appreciate a photojournalism photo as well as an art photo. But people who enjoy Clapton may not be down with Manson.
