Samenvatting | The brutally compassionate photographs by humanitarian and photojournalist James Nachtwey. This is the only major monograph of humanitarian and photojournalist James Nachtwey, five-time winner of the Robert Capa Medal for Photography. Featuring brutally compassionate photographs taken from 1990-99, inspired by an overwhelming belief in the human possibility of change, this volume is a definitive selection from Nachtwey's astonishing portfolio. It documents today's conflicts and their victims, from Somalia's famine to genocide in Rwanda, from Romania's abandoned orphans and 'irrecoverables' to the lives of India's 'untouchables', from war in Bosnia to conflict in Chechnya. Inferno is an evocative visual insight into modern history, bringing it disturbingly close to our consciousness. Parr/... (Lees verder) Badger II, p.254-255: "This is a difficult book to look at, a real stomach churner - that is it's intention. Images from many of the world's recent wars and places of misery hit you one after the other - Chechnya, Kosovo, Rwanda, Sudan, Zaire, Somalia". |
