Danziger's Travels
This account describes the author's adventures during an 18-month journey beyond forbidden frontiers in Asia. With minimal equipment and disguised as an itinerant Muslim, he hitch-hiked and walked through southern Turkey, and the Iran of the Ayatollahs, entering Afghanistan illegally in the wake of a convoy of Chinese weapons and then spent months dodging Russian helicopter gunships with the rebel guerillas. He was the first foreigner to cross from Pakistan into the closed western province of China since the revolution on 1949.
The British
For this work, Nick Danziger selects the pick of his black-and-white images of Britain's underclass and upperclass to create a vivid portrait of Britain at the start of the second millennium. From the palaces of Westminster to Durham's high-security, H-block prison wing for women murderers, from remote Scottish crofting communities to the violence-scarred, inner-city neighbourhoods of Scottswood and Benwell in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, from the richest man in England (the Duke of Westminster) and the C-in-C of the British Army to lives dominated by the abuse of drugs, violence and unemployment, Nick Danziger traverses the land in images of dramatic power.
Danziger's Britain
A devastating account of life among the growing underclass of Great Britain, told in the form of one man's extraordinary journey from city to city and his adventures with the homeless, petty criminals, unemployed and habitual drug-takers.
Another Life
From award-winning photojournalist Nick Danziger comes this extraordinary record of life on the edge in the world's poorest regions.
Danziger's Adventures
"This account describes the author's adventures during an 18-month journey "beyond forbidden frontiers" in Asia. With minimal equipment and disguised as an itinerant Muslim, he hitch-hiked and walked through southern Turkey, and the Iran of the Ayatollahs, entering Afghanistan illegally in the wake of a convoy of Chinese weapons and then spent months dodging Russian helicopter gunships with the rebel guerillas. He was the first foreigner to cross from Pakistan into the closed western province of China since the revolution on 1949"--Provided by publisher
Missing Lives
An immense tragedy took place in the Balkans between 1991 and 2001 during the Yugoslav Wars, when tens of thousands of people vanished. This heartwrenching event is told through 15 stories, in a moving collaboration between Nick Danziger's photographic essays and Rary Maclean's words. Desperate searches ensued for the missing, who in almost every case had been murdered, leaving families waiting endlessly. Now, for the first time, DNA has been used to match blood and bone, reuniting families divided by death. Missing Lives gives a voice to these bereft communities.
Back in the USSR
Ian Fleming could not have imagined a better place to set a thriller: an upstart mini-state on the edge of Europe, Transnistria is a nowhereland, a Soviet museum occupied by Russian peace-keepers near the Black Sea. Its oligarchs in Adidas tracksuits hunt wild boar with AK-47s. Its young people train for revolution at the Che Guevara High School of Political Leadership. Its secret factories have supplied arms to Chechnya and electrical cable to Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant. Its isolation and tiny size belie the real threat it poses to the West. To many observers, Transnistria is the North Korea of Europe. Yet its new president has launched a cunning coup of political marketing, appoint...
Mana
The photographs were taken, during June 2010, when the All Blacks' played against Ireland and Wales in the Steinlager Series.
1215: The Year of Magna Carta
On 15 June 1215, rebel barons forced King John to meet them at Runnymede. They did not trust the King, so he was not allowed to leave until his seal was attached to the charter in front of him. This was Magna Carta. It was a revolutionary document. Never before had royal authority been so fundamentally challenged. Nearly 800 years later, two of the charter's sixty-three clauses are still a ringing expression of freedom for mankind: 'To no one will we sell, to no one will we deny or delay right or justice'. And: 'No free man shall be taken or imprisoned or in any way ruined, except by the lawful judgement of his peers or by the law of the land'. 1215 - The Year of Magna Carta explores what it...
Between Heaven and Earth
The British Council in association with the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) is delighted to announce the launch of a new exhibition of photographs by acclaimed photographer Nick Danziger. The Ethiopian church is a living church and now faces new challenges. The British Council commissioned Nick Danziger in 2007 to document Ethiopia's Christian Churches; the Ethiopian Millennium celebrations in September 2007 offered the chance to throw light on this little known church and its culture, its breathtaking antiquity and its tentative entry into a globalised world.
