Africa as You've Never Seen It
Pieter Hugo is a young South African photographer causing a stir and winning prizes for his unsettling images of the continent's marginal people. "Some people have said to me that Pieter's subject is so dramatic that it would be hard to take a bad picture," says Biondi, "but, you know, a photographer chooses his subjects, and that, too, is an important part of having a great eye. Photographers go where their instinct leads them and then try and work out their fascination for the subject through the photographs they take. That's what Pieter's doing but in a kind of extreme way." She pauses for a moment. "He has a vision and he pursues it relentlessly. He has what it takes."
