Black Passport
The archetype of the war correspondent is freighted with an outsize heroic mythos to which world-renowned conflict photographer Stanley Greene is no stranger. Black Passport is his autobiographical monograph-cum-scrapbook, and it transports the viewer behind the news as Greene reflects upon his career, oscillating between the relative safety of life in the West and the traumas of wars abroad. This glimpse of the polarities that have comprised Greene's life raises essential questions about the role of the photojournalist, as well as concerns about its repercussions: what motivates someone to willingly confront death and misery? To do work that risks one's life? Is it political engagement, or a sense of commitment to telling difficult stories? Or does being a war photographer simply satisfy a yearning for adventure? Black Passport offers an experience that is both exceptionally personal and ostensibly objective. Built around Greene's narrating monologue, the book's 26 short, nonsequential "scenes" are each illustrated by a portfolio of his work.

STANLEY GREENE PHOTO POCHE
Les analystes les plus fins de la chose photographique, qu'ils commentent un livre ou une exposition, insistent volontiers sur le fait qu'une nouvelle ère s'ouvre à la photographie. Celle du concept. Quand ils ne l'expriment pas clairement, ils sous-entendent que la photographie de reportage est démodée et qu'une installation faite avec trois pavés et deux bouts de ficelle vaut tous les constats d'une actualité qui reste pourtant galopante. Stanley Greene est de ceux qui prouvent à l'évidence que les préceptes de la concerned photography n'ont rien perdu de leur acuité. Compagnon de route des ONG et des grandes organisations humanitaires ou caritatives, Stanley Greene considère son travail de photoreporter comme une mission. La chronique qu'il a consacrée, dix années durant, au martyre du peuple tchétchène, le situe parmi les grands témoins de son temps. Il mêle à un sidérant mépris du danger une profonde compassion pour ces civils et ces soldats qui brûlent au feu d'une tragique actualité. 64 photographies reproduites en duotone et en couleurs notices biographique et bibliographique.
