Stanley Greene wins W. Eugene Smith Award
Stanley Greene has won the 2004 W. Eugene Smith Grant in Humanistic Photography, one of the most prestigious and lucrative ($30,000) prizes in photojournalism, for his project "Chalk Lines: A Photographic Investigation of the Caucasus." The W. Eugene Smith Memorial Fund has also awarded a $5,000 Fellowship Grant to Kalpesh Lathigra for his project "Brides of Krishna: Indian Widows."
Greene, an American photographer based in Paris and represented by l'Agence Vu, has proposed to explore the volatile, oil-rich region of the Caucusus that's still dominated by an increasingly diminishing Soviet in?uence. Greene has dedicated much of his time over the last decade to the region, focusing intently on the war in Chechnya, culminating in last year's critically acclaimed book Open Wound: Chechnya, 1994-2003.
