"I'm more interested in a photography that is 'unfinished' - a photography that is suggestive and can trigger a conversation or dialogue. There are pictures that are closed, finished, to which there is no way in."
Paolo Pellegrin
Paolo Pellegrin is one of the world's leading photojournalists who has documented many of this generation's major disasters and conflicts, from revolutions to wars to tsunamis. Pellegrin wishes his work to "create a bridge…to use photography to say something that goes beyond the surface, that vibrates, that resonates." This approach has lead him to photograph in Lebanon, Iran, Palestine, Romania, Afghanistan, Libya, Cuba, the United States, Mali, Egypt, Algeria, Haiti, Tunisia, and Indonesia. In 2001 he became a Magnum Photos nominee and a full member in 2005.
