Photographer Jason Larkin

In prepa­ra­tion for the Live Desk of Mrs. Deane, next week­end in Utrecht, I want to show you some work of Jason Larkin, a 32-yo pho­tog­ra­pher and win­ner of the 2011 Arnold New­man Award. The first work I encoun­tered, was his series Work­ing Young, deal­ing with ille­gally employed chil­dren at a brick fac­tory in Egypt. His Gaza Laid Bare is an impres­sive doc­u­ment about the 22-day dur­ing oper­a­tion “Cast Lead” of the Israeli army in 2008. Larkin shows, among oth­ers, a short his­tory of a police sta­tion, the har­bour, the Al Bader flour fac­tory and the Gaza zoo.
