Yuri Kozyrev and Kadir van Lohuizen have explored the North Pole and brought back a striking reportage that shows the colossal stakes in this part of the world. The work of the laureates of the 9th edition of the Carmignac photojournalism award is exhibited at the Cité des sciences and industry in Paris.
Four reindeer pulling a sled in the snow. In the distance, a group of buddies advance in single file and disappear on the horizon … This is the photograph that welcomes the visitor who come to see this exhibition. A photograph of Yuri Kozyrev taken on the Yamal Peninsula in Russia, where nénete breeders lead their cattle from winter pastures to summer pastures. This year, for the first time, they could not complete transhumance because of the melting of the permafrost. So we are directly immersed in what is the strength of this incredible reportage proposed by the two photographers: the effects of global warming on this region of the world and the impact on local populations.
