Description

Join Peter van Agtmael, Jérôme Sessini, and Chronicles designer Christophe Renard in conversation at the Magnum Gallery in Paris next Thursday, January 30, as they discuss Magnum’s annual group publication and the current climate in the United States.

The debut issue of Magnum Chronicles focuses on the complexity of American identity and influence in the world today. Exploring internal social and political dynamics alongside pivotal aspects of U.S. foreign policy, this issue unveils exclusive new works and timely perspectives on select themes from the archive such as economics, immigration, climate, healthcare, democracy, and religion.

With curated insights into the United States and its outsized impact, US opens a dialogue on how America’s story intertwines with global movements and conflicts — provoking reflection on the dominant narratives and mythologies of the U.S. around the globe. The section dedicated to perspectives beyond the U.S. presents previously unseen stories from Alessandra Sanguinetti in the West Bank and Paolo Pellegrin in Ukraine.
