Dmitry Markov Russia
Part of my photography books collection (filmed for educational purpose). The 41yearold Russian photographer, laureate of the prestigious awards Silver Camera, PhotoPhilanthropy Activists and Getty ImagesInstagram awards, is wellknown for the raw and real aspect of his photographs, made with a simple iPhone and his sharp eye. For Draft, he had documented the unfiltered life in the former USSR. No staging in his photos, no models to pose: only scenes of everyday life that Dmitry had captured on the fly, almost stealthily for some. This album is once again a collection, a choice to edit photos that are already available online. Dmitry Markov explains it this way: First of all, the events of this year suggest the disturbing idea that open access is a fragile phenomenon and depends on a political agenda. Of course, the likelihood of Instagram being blocked is low, but such a scenario cannot be completely ruled out. With this in mind, I would like to preserve a photograph
