“a powerful document of the spiritual and physical state of exile. Most of the images were taken in Europe during Koudelka’s own twenty-year exile from his native Czechoslovakia, starting in 1970, after having left in the wake of photographing the Soviet-led invasion of Prague. The sense of private mystery that fills these photographs speaks of passion and reserve, of his rage to see. Solitary, moving, deeply felt and strangely disturbing, the images in Exiles suggest alienation, disconnection and love. “Exiles” evokes some of the most compelling and troubling themes of the twentieth century, still resonating with equal force during this time of migrations and profound transcience”

Winterreise is a compelling and sad but beautiful road story. Luc Delahaye, photographer and also melancholy storyteller, travels in winter across the dark landscape of Russia, where he takes an intimate look into the private face of Russia’s moral and social crisis. This is a unique body of work, bridging the divide between both art and journalism. The photographs are poetic – at the same time terrifying, exciting, intimate, moving and also very revealing. They offer many pleasures despite the depressing subject matter of a nation falling to pieces in winter, through alcohol and drug abuse

Jacob Riis came to America from Denmark in 1870 at age twenty-one. As a police reporter, Riis came to know intimately the Lower East Side slums of New York. He pioneered the use of flash powder, which allowed him to shed light on the dark, squalid tenements and on New York nightlife. The publication of How the Other Half Lives in 1890 shocked the upper and middle classes of New York. The book’s photographs confronted them with irrefutable evidence of the appalling conditions in which many of their fellow citizens lived. The work identified crowded and unsanitary tenements as the root cause of crime and moral decay. Riis’s work led directly to widespread social and housing reform that saved thousands of lives, making it perhaps the most important book in the history of photojournalism and social reform
