08/07/11: Jan Grarup
Jan Grarup (Danish, b.1968) has over the course of his eighteen-year career photographed many of recent history’s defining human rights and conflict issues. Grarup’s work reflects his belief in photojournalism’s role as an instrument of witness and memory to incite change, and the necessity of telling the stories of people who are rendered powerless to tell their own.
Jan received the first prize in the highly prestigious photographic competition, the Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2011, for this project: "Haïti Aftermath".
