Daniel Morel "Facing Our History"
Soho Photo Gallery
This event has ended.
For over 20 years, Haitian photojournalist Daniel Morel has documented his native country, capturing its culture and people, and covering more presidents and coup d'états, demonstrations and massacres, hurricanes and harvests than any other photojournalist. Appearing on front pages worldwide, Morel's photos were rarely seen in Haiti. When they ran in newspapers or online, they may have shocked or drawn empathy, but Morel always wondered - What if Haitians and others could see them in a different context? Could they inspire the reflection and dialogue that many feel is crucial to Haiti's future? Morel hopes this exhibition will help stimulate the conversation. Morel has received a Citation for Excellence from the Overseas Press Club of America, an Associated Press Award of Excellence, and the Sam Chavkin Prize for Integrity in Latin American Journalism.
