World Press Photo Exhibition 2024

The International Center of Photography, Fujifilm and the World Press Photo Foundation invite photographers to the public program on ‘Visual Strategies in Documentary Practice.’Join Catalina Martin-Chico, Sarah Blesener, and Alexey Yurenev for a conversation on visual strategies in documentary practice moderated by Karen Marshall, chair of ICP's Documentary Practice and Visual Journalism One Year Certificate program.

Speakers:
- Sarah Blesener (they/she) is an Emmy-nominated visual journalist based in New York City whose work focuses on survivor’s testimonies in the aftermath of gendered violence, abuses of power, and sexual assault. Her approach works with anonymous portraiture and collaborative storytelling methods. Alongside photographs, Sarah uses archival imagery, mixed media, poetry, and painting. Sarah also works as an educator, centering their practice on poetics, process and ethics.

- Catalina Martin-Chico is a Franco-Spanish photographer who lives in Paris. She trained at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York, where she lived for many years. Her work is part of the tradition of humanistic photography, of documentary and investigative photojournalism. She is one of the rare photojournalists to work regularly in Yemen, where she has been working since 2007, for reports published in Le Monde among others. She won the ICRC's 2011 Humanitarian Visa, and the work was exhibited at the International Visa for Image Festival the same year for her involvement in covering the Yemeni revolution. She won the 2017 Canon Women's Photojournalist Award for her project on FARC ex-fighters in Colombia. Produced over a year, her work is exhibited in the 2018 edition of the Visa pour l'Image Festival. In 2024, she won the Françoise Demulder award at the Visa pour l’Image Festival and is one of the 2019 World Press Photo award-winning photographers. Martin-Chico leads as many long-term projects as she can, which she publishes in the French and foreign press (Le Monde, Geo, Der Spiegel, New York Times, Le Figaro Magazine, L ‘Obs, VSD, Marie-Claire, and ELLE) and exhibits in several countries, including Paris, Bruxels, New York, Canada, Madrid, Rome, and Milan.

- Alexey Yurenev is a photographer, visual researcher, and educator whose work examines how technology shapes the production of knowledge and collective memory. His projects have been published in The New York Times, National Geographic, Topic, and FOAM Magazine, and his work has been recognized by organizations such as Photographer of the Year International, the Silurian Society of New York, and Dummy Award, as well as receiving nominations for an Emmy and Shorty Awards. Yurenev’s work has been exhibited at the FOAM Museum, Hangar Gallery and collected by Johns Hopkins University Special Collections. In 2020, Yurenev co-founded FOTODEMIC.org, a platform dedicated to innovative visual strategies, and became a faculty member at the International Center of Photography in New York.
