Behind the Scenes | with Magnum Photographer, Ian Berry

You can view the full Olympus range here: bit.ly/3CJrKjV We're going behind the scenes with award-winning, world-renowned photographer Ian Berry. We'll discuss his current project Living Apart/Water Worldwide, alongside following Ian as he captures new images throughout the day. He will discuss his techniques as he photographs. Ian Berry was born in Lancashire, England. He made his reputation in South Africa, where he worked for the Daily Mail and later for Drum magazine. He was the only photographer to document the massacre at Sharpeville in 1960, and his photographs were used in the trial to prove the victims' innocence. Henri Cartier-Bresson invited Berry to join Magnum in 1962, when he was based in Paris. He moved to London in 1964 to become the first contract photographer for the Observer Magazine. Since then assignments have taken him around the world: he has documented Russia's invasion of Czechoslovakia; conflicts in Israel, Ireland, Vietnam and the Congo; famine in Ethiopia; and apartheid in South Africa. The major body of work produced in South Africa is represented in two of his books: Black and Whites: L'Afrique du Sud (with a foreword by the then French president François Mitterrand), and Living Apart (1996). The masterclass will cover: • Planning and location selection. • Gear and technical requirements. • Discussing work styles, techniques and shooting. #WexEvents #OnlinePhotoCourses
