關於作者：
Steve Bloom is a writer and photographer who specialises in evocative
images of the living world. Born in South Africa in 1953, he has lived
in England since 1977.
His concern for the environment is strongly
evident in his books. He strives to blur the lines separating different
living species and show their sentience. His photographs of people
reveal a compassionate understanding of his subjects, evident in his
books Living Africa and Trading Places: The Merchants of Nairobi. He has
won numerous international awards for his work, including The Power of
Photography Award, The Golden Eye of Russia, the Lucie Awards, and the
Best Photo Book Germany.
Steve Bloom frequently reinvents his
creative approach to his work. His work in Apartheid South Africa,
poignant and edgy, reveals the alienation of a country on the cusp of
change; placing Bloom among the select few photographers who caught the
mood of the time. His venture into animal photography was a continuation
of his exploration of different genres of photography, and it struck a
chord with the general public. His goal was to use images to communicate
with the masses, and take photography exhibitions outside galleries.
This was done in spectacular fashion with the publication of Untamed in
ten languages for its first edition, and the staging of the first major
outdoor exhibitions. The free outdoor exhibitions, promoting
environmental issues, are major events staged in conjunction with city
authorities, and attract visitor numbers in the millions.
His return
to photographing people resulted in the book Living Africa, published in
nine languages in its first edition. More recently, Trading Places -
The Merchants of Nairobi is a book that features an engaging community
and its street art.
Steve Bloom is an accomplished speaker, and has
lectured at venues such as The Royal Geographical Society, The Natural
History Museum, The Edinburgh Book Festival, Travellers Tales Festival,
BJP Vision, Focus on Imaging and Wildphotos. Forthcoming appearances
include the Durham Book Festival and the Bath Festival of Children''s
Literature. More on his speaking engagements at
