During the American intervention in Somalia in the early 1990s, the NY Times sometimes had front-page photos from Somalia, showing scenes of hardship or pain, but in a very artistic style. The contrast between the difficult subject matter and the sheer artistic beauty of the pictures was sometimes heartbreaking. (I remember a picture of a woman with her starving baby in her lap which looked like the Madonna and child.)
Does anyone know the name of that photographer, or any idea how I might figure it out?
Thanks.
I don't know but try contacting the NY TImes and ask them if they know. They should have the photos in an archive. |
