Libri fotografici 3 Parr Badger 2014 Parr Martin Badger Gerry The Photobook: A History III. London Phaidon 2014. Il materiale d'archivio è crudamente grafico e racconta una storia di repressione brutale e prolungata. Il saggio del libro scritto da Ertugrul Kürkçü mette in discussione la natura di ciò che le fotografie possono effettivamente dirci e se possono fare la differenza. "Ho ricevuto queste fotografie nel 30° anniversario del movimento del 68 in Turchia. Le fotografie sono state nascoste e salvate dai membri del movimento del 68 da quel momento. Le fotografie sono state scattate in diversi quartieri di Istanbul Tokat Niksar e Kizildere e in molti altri posti in tutta la Turchia. Alcune delle immagini si riferiscono al massacro di Kizildere. E il testo è scritto dalla persona "che ha sentito la voce del sangue" l'unica persona sopravvissuta al massacro. È un testo molto speciale per i giovani della generazione di oggi.Le fotografie hanno un linguaggio che tutti possono comprendere senza alcuna conoscenza storica." Focuskop Fotoform, unknown
