Mad Max ‘Beyond Thunderdome’ Contact Sheet

Never-before-seen photographs of Tina Turner as the formidable Aunty Entity, captured amidst the searing heat of the Australian outback during the production of 'Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome', this striking contact sheet offers a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of the music and screen icon in full costume.

French photographer Jean Guichard, renowned for his evocative photojournalism, was commissioned by a leading French agency to document the filming for European press syndication. Guichard was given exclusive access for candid and unguarded moments of Turner on set, captured during a pivotal chapter in both her career and the Mad Max legacy.

Rendered as a contact sheet, this piece underscores the raw artistry of analog photography - each frame a moment suspended in time, offering insight into both performance and persona.
