Abstract
This paper will examine the recent photographs of Mongrel Mob members by Jono Rotman, a recipient of the Marti Friedlander Award. The controversy surrounding these portraits, due to one of the subjects being an alleged murderer, will inform the discussion and advance the view that the images are powerful works of art. The photographs demystify the subject's monstrous aspects and show them as
disturbingly real human beings.
