Photojournalist Mary Ellen Mark in 5 cult images
Steidl publishers are dedicating a very beautiful book to the American journalist Mary Ellen Mark (1940-2015), who worked for years with the prestigious Magnum agency, probing the darkest corners of society, from the bedrooms of prostitutes in Bombay to the meetings of the Ku Klux Klan and the film set of « Apocalypse Now ». Six hundred of her best shots can now be found in « The Book of Everything », edited by the photographer’s own husband. Raw, often provocative Numéro tells the story behind the images.
