PHONE PICS AND SCREEN GRABS 'WIN ￡30,000

摘要

ARTISTS who scoured the internet for low-resolution screen grabs and mobile-phone images have won this year's ￡30,000 Deutsche Borse Photography Prize, say organisers. Oliver Chanarin from the UK and South African-born Adam Broomberg triumphed with images focusing on the 'War on Terror' (see image below). Their images run alongside the work of German poet Bertolt Brecht in a project entitled War Primer 2, a book published in 2011 as a modern-day version of Brecht's 1955 publication, War Primer.
