On the 25th June photographers, estate representatives, and staff at Magnum Photos began the agency’s 78th Annual General Meeting (AGM), an event that has taken place every year since the cooperative’s founding in 1947.
Usually based in one of Magnum’s three home cities — New York, Paris, or London — this was the second time in its history that the AGM was held online.
During the AGM photographer Zied Ben Romdhane was announced as the newest full Member of Magnum Photos.
Born in 1981 in Tunisia, Ben Romdhane’s work is centered around his native Tunisia. He delves into the socio-political contrasts between inland regions and coastal areas, shedding light on how geography shapes these dynamics.
