Confirmed speakers
Vision 2009 Speakers are yet to be announced – Previous speakers at Vision include:
Anders Petersen:
‘I seek out hidden places and hidden people. With death close by, life is so much clearer.’ The legendary Swedish photographer is best known for his masterwork, CafĂ© Lehmitz, his diaristic account of a seedy Hamburg bar during the late 1960’s. Shooting mainly in black-and-white, he seeks out people on the fringes of society, such as prostitutes, drug addicts and psychiatric patients. ‘To me, its encounters that matter,’ he says, ‘pictures are much less important’. http://www.anderspetersen.se/

Rene Burri:
Rene Burri – best known for his iconic images of Che Guevara, Picasso and the Brazillian capital – has captured many of the major political, historical and cultural events of the second half of the 20th century. ‘Pictures are like taxis during rush hour,’ he once said. ‘If you’re not fast enough someone else will get them first.’ He is one of Magnum’s best known photographers, having joined the agency in 1955, and was given a huge retrospective of his work three years ago at the Maison Europeenne de la Photographie in Paris, which toured many other European museums and was accompanied by a large monograph published by Phaidon. http://www.magnumphotos.com/archive/

Simon Norfolk:
Best known for his stunning large format I ages exploring the socio-economic effects of militarism, Norfolk has been acclaimed as the leading British photographer of his generation. From supercomputers and hi-tech missile launchers, to refugee camps and the battle –scarred landscapes of Iraq and Afghanistan, his longterm series, Et in Arcadia ego, takes an oblique look at conflict, far removed from classic war photography. http://www.simonnorfolk.com/

Brian Griffin:
Named photographer of the decade by The Guardian, Brian Griffin’s mastery of lighting and Expressionistic influences took portraiture to new heights in the 1980’s. He has captured iconic images of many of Britain’s leading musical and acting talent by maintaining an uncompromising approach to his subjects, whom he insists are the actors in his sets. http://www.briangriffin.co.uk/
