WOMEN IN MOTION AWARD FOR PHOTOGRAPHY 2021
LIZ JOHNSON ARTUR
Kering and the Rencontres d’Arles honor Liz Johnson Artur with the third Women In Motion award for photography.
Liz Johnson Artur produced a collection of photos on the world’s African diaspora. Her dynamic documentary photographs, in black & white and color, paint a complex picture of black identities. Rather than working with “subjects”, she photographs human beings and uses her work to tell stories. “What interests me are the people, the people I don’t see represented anywhere else,” states the artist.
