Cristina de Middel: “In the context of the current editorial crisis, where media outlets are dwindling and budgets for long-term, in-depth stories are shrinking, Magnum Chronicle emerges as a necessary platform for the stories our photographers continue to create despite these challenging times. It is a proactive solution that allows us to maintain visibility for the work of Magnum photographers and aligns with the original spirit of Magnum — protecting high-quality, independent reporting. If the media cannot host our stories, we have created our own platform, which I hope will have a life as long as Magnum’s.”
