Description
The breadth of the human experience
We quite rightly celebrate human creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship, but too often our triumphs in science, engineering, and technology come at a monumental cost. The human story is more often a tale of conflict and despair than of nurture, love, and coexistence. It would be easy to read the human story as one of tragic hubris. Yet it does not end here. We stand on the threshold of the future wondering which way the dice will fall. Our wager with posterity is that human ingenuity, intelligence, and resilience of spirit are powerful enough to insist upon a very different future for the human story.
Prix Pictet: Human features over 100 outstanding works of contemporary photography by many of the world's most acclaimed photographers.
