Hannah Reyes Morales documents tenderness amidst adversity. Her photography, both visceral and intimate, explores how resilience is embodied in daily life. She grew up in Manila, witnessing loved ones depart from home each year. These departures, along with the discovery of a shelf of dusty photographic magazines, stirred her interest in concerned photography. Morales has reported on forced marriages in Cambodia, documented women’s experiences with assault in the ongoing conflict in South Sudan, explored the long-term effects of colonization on women’s bodies in the Philippines, photographed the toll of Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs, and documented the Filipino Diaspora. In 2019, she participated in the World Press Photo’s Joop Swart Masterclass and received the Tim Hetherington Visionary Award. She is a 2020 National Geographic Explorer and the World Economic Forum named her a cultural leader in its ASEAN forum. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and National Geographic Magazine, among others.

In 1966 he began an eighteen-year affiliation with the London Sunday Times Magazine, covering major conflicts and battlefields — the Congo, Biafra, Israel, Vietnam, Cambodia, Northern Ireland, Bangladesh, Lebanon, El Salvador, Iraq, and Syria — and became recognized both as a master of black-and-white photography and as a legendary war photographer. He is the author of more than twenty books, including his acclaimed autobiography, Unreasonable Behaviour. Previous recognition includes two Premier Awards from World Press Photo, the 2006 ICP Infinity Awards Cornell Capa Award, and the 2016 Master of Photography at Photo London. He was made Commander of the British Empire in 1993, and was knighted in 2017.

I was in Australia, working on a photographic project on the aftermath of the wildfires, and there was a moment when I realized that this pandemic was not being contained. It was spreading everywhere. My family was back in Switzerland, and I was playing these scenarios through my mind: Borders being closed. What if I get sick? What if I get stuck? What if my wife, Kathryn, gets sick, and I can’t reach her?

Best known for large format photographs of the post-industrial Chinese landscape, Zhang Kechun produces epic vistas that extol and underscore the significance of landscape in modern Chinese national identity. For this project, Kechun embarked on a journey along one of the country’s longest and most celebrated waterways, the Yellow River, considered the cradle of Chinese civilization, which has undergone drastic, and often destructive, transformation in the last hundred years. Initially Kechun envisioned his trip on the historic river as an experience to “find the root of my soul.”
