We are very excited to announce that on September the 4th photographer Ian Berry will be discussing his beautiful body of work as well as his international career as one of Magnum photography agency’s longest serving members and presents work developed by participants of the Magnum Photos course. This is a great chance to meet the acclaimed photographer and to get the opportunity to understand him and his work in more detail.
Berry was born in Preston, England. At the mere age of just 17 he set out to South Africa. From there he was able to make his reputation as a photojournalist, working for the Daily Mail and later Drum magazine. Capturing some of the country’s most significant moments, recording ordinary lives in unthinkable situations. Furthermore, he was the only photographer to to record the massacre of more than 69 people at Sharpeville in 1960, and these remarkable photographs were later used in the trial proving the victim’s were innocent.
