Newsletter | Blind's Week: Benjamin Hoffman, Yan Morvan

See, read and understand the language of photographersThis week Blind focuses on photographers who get up close with the violence and the faces of their victims.

How to represent violence? Through the work of three photographers, our columnist explores this complex question of photography. 

With our On That Day series, photographers are invited to take us behind the scenes of one of their photographs.  Today, photographer Benjamin Hoffman relates his trip to Robben Island, South Africa.

In his series on Lebanon in the 1980s, the photojournalist Yan Morvan sheds light on the various actors and sites involved in the conflict. His works can be viewed at Galerie Folia in Paris as well as in a book published by Photosynthèses (Liban, 2018, 472 pages).
