Author Information

Winner of the 2010 European Publishers Award for Photography, Christophe Agou, is noted for his personal documentary-style in both black-and-white and colour photography. His intimate images both haunt and intrigue - and create an intensely rich, layered, visual language that triggers thoughts and emotions. Agou moved to New York in 1992 and came to prominence with a compelling body of work made in the New York Subway. This was published as 'Life Below' in 2004. He was a finalist for the prestigious Eugene Smith Award (2006), for Le Prix de la Photographie de l'Academie des Beaux-Arts de Paris (2008) and received a 'Mention Speciale' for le Prix Kodak de la Critique Photographique (2009). His photographs have been widely published and exhibited at MOMA, New York; Jeu de Paume, Paris; The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston; The Museum of American History, Washington D.C; The Museum of Art Pilar & Joan Miro, Majorca; The Santa Fe Center for Visual Arts; Les Rencontres D'Arles, France and Noorderlicht Fotofestival, The Netherlands.
