Bag om Heritage in Focus (Bilingual edition)
"The world is a museum without walls. Let's protect our shared heritage and tell the story of the essential connection between people and places.">monuments and landscapes they shape.This desire gave rise to the work of the 11 winning photographers of the 'Heritage in focus' programme, with its immense diversity: diversity of places, diversity of people, diversity of perspectives. By combining global and local approaches, this project overlaps narratives - those of the monuments that bear witness to history, those of thelocal communities that are their stewards, and that of the photographer - so that each shot becomes a sedimentation of times and points of view.From traditional Ashanti buildings in Ghana to Sumba in Indonesia, Yanacancha-Huaquis in Peru, Tiretta Bazaar in India and the Garcia Pastures in the USA, this book takes you on a journey around the world and its places of beauty and history.This series of sites is part of an effort not only to illustrate the diversity of the world's cultural heritage, but also to warn us of the threats to its environment.
