Inner Disorder: Ukraine 2014-2017

Three years of conflict at the threshold of Europe and Russia. Magnum photographer Jérôme Sessini (born 1968) documents the chaos and banality of life in wartime Ukraine between 2014 and 2017, in photographs and text. Sometimes, a single book can summarise a period, an event, a phenomenon. Only the talent of the author can make the difference. Jérôme Sessini's photographs of Ukraine's uprising are not nice, they are simply appropriate, and necessary. They rightly question the horror, violence and hypocrisy that characterise six years of wars at the gates of Europe. Inner Disorder gathers photographs and text of both harshest moments and down times of a war rhythmed by life, death, boredom and silence. The proximity of the events leaves no respite to the reader as the familiarity of the faces blatantly illustrates the banality of war. And yet, he reaches beyond the context to produce a universal message. - François Hébel SELLING POINTS: .
