Sinossi
"Nei ritratti ricerco il momento di vulnerabilità in cui l'anima, pura, si svela e le esperienze di vita appaiono incise nel volto. Se trovo la persona o il soggetto giusto, può capitare che ritorni una, due, o anche più volte, in attesa dell'attimo ideale. Per me i ritratti di questo libro trasmettono il desiderio di rapporti umani, un desiderio talmente forte che le persone, consapevoli del fatto che non mi vedranno più si aprono all'obiettivo nella speranza che qualcuno, dall'altra parte, li veda; qualcuno che riderà o soffrirà con loro. Dell'infinità di fotografie scattate in più di vent'anni, questi sono i volti che non riesco a dimenticare." (Steve McCurry)

I can't get enough of these photos and I own the album for seven years now. All the faces tell stories, the eyes of these people speak volumes. I have my favourite ones but it's one of an Afghani boy that breaks my heart every single time I see his picture. I'm a huge fan of Steve McCurry, he is not Leggi tutto
McCurry is my favorite photographer, and this is probably my favorite of his collections. The vibrancy of his portraits (no photoshopping!) do not pull me into an exotic and foreign world: they thrust it at me! He so humanizes images that should be bizarre to my western mindset that I feel I highly
This is a book of portraits of many, many, MANY different 'kinds' of people, from all over the world. Some of them really touched my heart. The artist really captures the essence of each person.
