First edition of this moving record of the atrocites that befell the Balkans in the 1990's. Thick octavo, original illustrated boards. Signed by all three contributors: photographer Gilles Peress; Eric Stover, who contributed the text and Justice Richard Goldstone, who contributed the foreword. In fine condition.
Peress described his art well when he said, "I work much more like a forensic photographer in a certain way, collecting evidence. I've started to take more still lifes, like a police photographer, collecting evidence as a witness. I've started to borrow a different strategy than that of the classic photojournalist. The work is much more factual and much less about good photography. I don't care that much anymore about "good photography." I'm gathering evidence for history, so that we remember" (U.S. News).
