NEWS OF THE WEEK
The project Galegos
na Diáspora
 Delmi Alvarez Book in spring | Exhibition late 2005 852 millones de seres hambrientos en el mundo, 5 millones de niños que mueren cada año por falta de alimentos. Mil millones de niños que sufre el acoso de la 
miseria, la guerra o el sida, con peligro directo
para sus vidas. All is = Planeta
Tierra. Tonight,
literally millions
of children will go to bed hungry. Some of them will plead for food,
not
able to understand that their moms and dads simply have nothing to give
them. Others — the little ones — will
just cry with empty bellies. And some will be too weak to even
cry.Maybe you can imagine watching your own child hurting, dying — and
being unable to help. It's any parent's nightmare. (Sebastiao Salgado was one of the photographers with compromise that spent many time covering the hunger in Sahel) Links if you want to know more about hunger in the world: http://www.kodak.com/global/en/professional/features/legendsV3Q5/menu.shtml http://www.hungerfree.net/english/index.html http://www.worldhunger.org/articles/books/lappe.htm http://www.bread.org/hungerbasics/international.html http://www.terra.com.br/sebastiaosalgado/ http://www.worldhunger.org/ http://nutrition.tufts.edu/academic/hungerweb/opps/employment/ Larry Sultan / The Valley BK/Foto8 Americans
are strange people. Regardless of national origin, they seem driven by
a combination of competition and insecurity. “Ah-nold” Schwarzenegger,
from playing Predator, Terminator and Conan the Barbarian, has now
become governor of California. They believe in “keeping up with the
Joneses”. They worry that
someone else is “getting more” – more money or more sex. This
combination of envy and sexuality is one of the main drivers of the
American Dream. For Larry Sultan, this nexus is most strongly manifest
in the San Fernando Valley, the centre of the pornography industry,
just north of Los Angeles off the 405. Here, in the most representative
site of the American Dream, the doctors and dentists of “the Valley”
rent out their suburban homes to the porn industry for use as sets in
sex movies.

Cansado de que le cuenten mentiras, este periodista español ha decidido poner en marcha y apostar fuerte por un proyecto personal. "Desde territorio comanche", como él dice, Pedro, quiere hacer llegar a la opinión pública los conflictos mucho más de cerca, en primera persona, y desde primera línea, en un estilo periodístico muy lejos de los comunicados oficialistas a que tanto nos tienen acostumbrados en la prensa actual. La imagen que ilustra esta noticia fue tomada en Vukovar en 1991 por un fotoperiodista de la agencia AP donde se ve a Pedro poniéndose a resguardo de los ataques de mortero del ejército serbio.

Acerca de las fotos encontradas ¿Recuerdan haber roto, quemado o tirado fotos? A veces, un gesto poco agraciado, una vestimenta pasada de moda o la compañía de personas que queremos olvidar, bastan para decidirnos a tirar algunas fotos. Lo mismo ocurre cuando nos encontramos con fotos de familiares con quienes ya no nos une ningún lazo afectivo o cuando el paso del tiempo ha borrado toda referencia. Ni siquiera las anotaciones en el dorso son de ayuda. Entonces, podemos elegir entre guardarlas -lo que seguramente es la postergación de una decisión que alguien tomará en el futuro- o tirarlas. www.fotosencontradas.com.ar Fernando García / COVER Homeless Children photographers in Tetuan (Morocco) "I like to photograph people in the medina and then ask them to take me a picture", said Abdlilah Laahbi.
