Anais, 26, who wants to remove the Emancipation statue in Lincoln Park in Washington, DC, argues with a man who argues to keep it, June 25th, 2020. Critics say the Emancipation Memorial — which shows Lincoln holding a copy of the Emancipation Proclamation as an African American man in a loincloth kneels at his feet — is demeaning in its depiction of African Americans. The drive to remove the statue comes amid a wave of calls to take down monuments of Confederate generals.

WORLD PRESS PHOTO 2021: NUOVE NARRAZIONI VISIVE

“Ad essere emersa maggiormente penso che sia stata la varietà di approcci alla narrazione visiva”, ha spiegato Rodrigo Orrantia, curatore e membro della giuria del World Press Photo Contest 2021, commentando le nomine di quest’anno. “I fotografi in generale, ma in particolare i fotogiornalisti e i fotografi della stampa, stanno scoprendo nuovi modi di raccontare visivamente le storie. Inoltre, diversi autori si sono distinti perché il loro linguaggio visivo è molto sofisticato, il che comporta un importante cambiamento rispetto allo stile tradizionale del fotogiornalismo”. I nomi dei vincitori del World Press Photo 2021 saranno comunicati il 15 aprile 2021.
