Alessandra Sanguinetti<\/strong> has been awarded this year’s $50,000 National Geographic Magazine Grant for Photography<\/em> in a competition open to all professional photographers which illustrates the “magazine\u0092s ongoing commitment to documentary photojournalism<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

You can read more about the grant and see portfolios by the two previous recipients of this award, Jonas Bendiksen<\/em> and\u00a0 Eugene Richards<\/em> at the magazine<\/a>, which doubtless will soon also feature Sanguinetti’s work. But as these names suggest, competition for the award is extremely tough.<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most intriguing of the projects on Sanguinetti’s web<\/a> site is a set of pictures taken from 199-2001 “The Adventures of Guille and Belinda and the Enigmatic Meaning of their Dreams”.\u00a0 This series in continued in “The Life that Came<\/em>“,\u00a0 an exhibition at the Yossi Milo Gallery <\/a>in 2008. The work follows the life of thse two young women, cousins who grew up on a farm near Buenos Aires, with images inspired both by their inner life and experiences as they move into adulthood.<\/p>\n

Sanguinetti joined Magnum Photos as a nominee in 2007 and you can see more of her work on the Magnum site, although I find their overprinted copyright message particularly intrusive on work like hers. Pictures on the site include her work on domestic animals and a series of pictures – mainly portraits – from Palestine.<\/span><\/p>\n
