Larry Towell wint Prix Nadar
Canadian photographer Larry Towell has won France's Prix Nadar for his book of photographs, No Man's Land.
The Prix Nadar is awarded annually for a book of photographs edited in France. The prize was created in 1955 and is awarded by a jury of photojournalists and publishing experts.
No Man's Land is a collection of black and white photographs from the West Bank and Gaza.
It reflects one of Towell's obsessions as a photographer – landlessness and its effects on people – a theme he explored in The Mennonites, about the Mennonites of Mexico, and his award-winning monograph, El Salvador.
