The work of the Eugene Smith Prize award winner whose photographs taken over decades and around the globe reflect the themes of identity, survival, and resilience of marginalized and remote communities.

This book chronicles the career of Belgian photographer John Vink, who began contributing to Libe´ration in 1985. His personal project Water in the Sahel won the Eugene Smith Prize in 1986, showcasing his commitment to capturing the human experience in difficult environments.
As a founding member of Agence VU, Vink documented refugee camps globally. It allowed him to become a full member at Magnum Photos in 1997, which he would remain until 2017.

His Peuples d’En Haut series highlights the resilience and cultural identity of mountain communities, such as the Mam in Guatemala and the Hmong in Laos. After years of travel, Vink settled in Cambodia in 2000, allowing him to engage more deeply with a single culture. Now based in Brussels, he continues to inspire through his powerful visual storytelling that explores themes of identity and humanity. With a text contribution by Rik Van Puymbroeck.

Langverwachte eerste retrospectieve van voormalig Magnum-fotograaf John Vink Dit boek beschrijft de carrière van de Belgische fotograaf John Vink, die in 1985 begon bij Libération. Zijn persoonlijke project Water in de Sahel won in 1986 de Eugene Smith-prijs en benadrukte zijn toewijding om de menselijke ervaring in moeilijke omstandigheden vast te leggen. Als medeoprichter van Agence VU documenteerde Vink wereldwijd vluchtelingenkampen. Dat liet hem toe om in 1997 volwaardig lid te worden bij Magnum Photos, wat hij zou blijven tot en met 2017. Zijn serie Peuples d?En Haut toont de veerkrachten culturele identiteit van berggemeenschappen, zoals de Mam in Guatemala en de Hmong in Laos. Na jaren van reizen vestigde Vink zich in 2000 in Cambodja, wat hem in staat stelde om zich dieper in een cultuur te verdiepen. Nu hij in Brussel woont, blijft hij inspireren met zijn krachtige visuele verhalen die thema?s zoals identiteit en menselijkheid onderzoeken. Met een tekstbijdrage van Rik Van Puymbroeck. Uitgegeven ter gelegenheid van de retrospectieve tentoonstelling van John Vink in het Musée de la Photograph
