Description:
A member of Magnum, Marc Riboud has travelled the world, from Europe to the Middle East and from Vietnam to the United States. Repelled by violence, indifferent to the pursuit of 'events', yet irresistibly drawn by the desire to see, he is a reporter under the spell of life itself. Whether covering the Cultural Revolution or the Soviet Union before perestroika, he waits for the inner truth to 'rise to the surface of things'. These photographs reveal his intense awareness of the innate power of each image.

Each volume contains some sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography.
