Yannis Behrakis – With the Eyes of the Soul
The name of Yannis Behrakis is inextricably linked to the most significant moments in global photojournalism of recent decades. A witness to the events that shape modern history and a defender of those who endure them, Yannis Behrakis was a deeply committed humanitarian. His defining trait was his realistic yet idealistic approach to capturing human tragedy, constantly reminding us that hope survives amidst suffering and destruction.
Based on a series of conversations with Yorgos Archimandritis, the book vividly encapsulates the philosophy and mindset of the multi-awarded Greek photographer, delivering to us the pure essence of the poetry of his art and life.
The book is published by Patakis Publishers.
