On the run with Guillaume Herbaut

Guillaume Herbaut, born in 1970, lives and works in Paris. Along with commissions for the press, his documentary work takes him to places steeped in history whose symbols and memory he questions in order to reveal their invisible dramas: Chernobyl, Auschwitz, Nagasaki and more recently the conflict in Ukraine. His photographs have been exhibited at the Jeu de Paume, at the Maison rouge and in many festivals. He has received several awards, including two World Press, a Visa d'Or, the Niépce 2011 prize and, in 2016, the Bayeux-Calvados prize for war correspondents, web journalism category, for his roadmap in Ukraine produced by Arte Info. The same year, he published "7/7, the shadow of the living" with the editions of La Martinière. In 2018, his work was exhibited at the Grande Arche du Photojournalisme in Paris under the title “Pour Mémoire”.
