"Поезията на Ивона Иванова е писък. Сваля маската от красивото лице на света и крещи в него. Разрушава стереотипите на заобикалящото ни ежедневие и го оголва до абсолютна празнота. В книгата оставаме сами със сетивата си, готови да попиват образите на собственото ни съществуване, от което изходът е само мираж. Светът е с нарушен ритъм и пулс и ние не сме готови да го спасим. Или пък сме?"

"In a fast paced world with media focused on single, dramatic images there is the danger that extended documentary work like that of Babak Salari’s may be missed in the rush for the next great cover shot.

Like any story, the best way to experience “Remembering the People of Afghanistan” is to be conscious of the telling and willing to let ourselves be affected by it. Salari’s photos form a rich, complex story told in a soft voice. It is the story of a people recounted with empathy and respect. At times, it is ... |
