In the spring of 2009, the photo exhibition Le Maître et Marguerite, Création Photographique by the French fashion photographer Jean-Daniel Lorieux was shown in Moscow. The year before, this exhibition had been very suc-cessful in Paris. The photo series got much attention because of the role of Margarita, which was played by actress Isabelle Adjani. The Russian bu-sinessman and financer Evgeny Yakovlev, the initiator of the project, clai-med the role of Woland for himself.
The idea of Yakovlev was not new though, since one year earlier, the Dutch fashion photographer Herman van Gestel, who works in Amsterdam, Lon-don and New York, had already made a series of fashion photos with Russian models in a Russian setting, also inspired by The Master and Margarita.
Nowadays, photographer Elena Martynyuk is making a series of photo-graphs about The Master and Margarita in collaboration with the Bulgakov House in Moscow. 70 shoots were already organized and more than 1,000 photos were made. There will be a book and an exhibition.
