"Tomasevic's images sear themselves into your consciousness. I have
never seen such powerful imagery that not only captures the horror
of war itself but also its heartrending impact on innocent
civilians, on our sense of our own humanity. But they do much more
than that. They have an iconic quality as if created with a
painter's eye for detail, composition and contrast." - John Green,
Morning Star "This powerful, terrible book conveys a Dantesque
vision of our humanity. Admiration for Goran Tomasevic, a wonderful
Caravaggio of photography!" - Francis Kochert, Academie nationale
de Metz Goran Tomas evic is a living legend. Not only has he
survived for 30 years in crisis zones, but he has mastered the
supreme art of photography, interpreting the world in a humanistic
way, following in the footsteps of Robert Capa and James Nachtwey.
This powerful, terrifying book conveys a Dantesque vision of our
humanity. Current circumstances lead us to believe that this
madness will go on and on. Goran is just 13 years old when his
father gives him his first camera - an ancient FED 5V. And with it,
his life begins to become a constant adventure, described in the
444 pages of this book. The quality of his reportage and the power
of his images enabled him to join the Reuters agency in 1996 and,
over the next 20 years, to become one of the most awarded
photographers in the world. His oeuvre can be called a photographic
synthesis of the arts, an eminent contribution to the great path of
photo reportage and an indispensable history of the last 30 years.
Goran Tomasevic's credo: "If you want to present the facts
authentically, you have to be where they are. That's the
challenge." Text in English, German, and French.
