According to the NOOR web site<\/a>, “Andrea Bruce is an award winning documentary photographer whose work focuses on people living in the aftermath of war<\/em>.” So it perhaps made her an obvious choice as photographer for a recent New York Times article, ‘In Britain, Austerity Is Changing Everything<\/a>‘ by Peter S Goodman. <\/p>\n

Both text and pictures are interesting and illuminating, though much of what Goodman writes will be familiar to those of us living in the UK. But I particularly admire Bruce’s images and her use of space, as well as the range of images and the research and gaining access that must have gone into the project. She obviously had a very good ‘fixer’, often the unsung heroes of documentary photography.<\/p>\n

You can see more of her work on the NOOR web site<\/a>, where there is also a short biography of this American photographer born in 1973. She also appears on the World Press Photo site<\/a> for her Soldier’s Funeral which was awarded second prize for single photos in the Daily Life section of the 2014 WPP awards.<\/p>\n

Some of you may also be able to access her own web site<\/a>, but on my normal browser all I get is a white screen with the message ‘Click to enable Adobe Flash player<\/em>‘ which fails to respond to my clicking. I tried on a second browser and just got a dark grey filling the screen. <\/p>\n

There are several videos of her on-line, including one on a workshop she gave in Bali<\/a>, a shorter one of her talking about her approach<\/a> and another of her talking about her ‘Our Democracy’ project<\/a> in the USA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
