An ardent photo narrative of the most turbulent focal points of our time - Ukraine, Northern Africa, the Middle East, Haiti and Europe. Paul Hansen is one of Scandinavia's most experienced photo journalists. He has a unique ability of getting close connecting with the people he depicts. No other Swedish photographer has ever received so many awards - including being named World Press Photo of the Year winner, Photographer of the Year by POYi in 2010 and 2012, Photographer of the Year in Sweden eight times, and two first place awards from NPPA. This book is the first major retrospective book on his work, covering conflicts and disasters around the world. It is 300 pages thick and presents almost 200 of his very best images.
Paul Hansen is a staff photographer of Dagens Nyheter, the largest morning newspaper in Scandinavia. He has previously been a freelance, based in New York. He now lives in Stockholm but travels the world constantly.
