« Arctic: New Frontier » : Yuri Kozyrev and Kadir van Lohuizen co-laureates of the 9th #PrixCarmignac documented the consequences of #globalwarming in the #Arctic region. One of them is the militarization of strategic areas.
Kadir van Lohuizen traveled in the North of #Canada, to Qaussuituq* in the South of Cornwallis Island. It’s one of the coldest inhabited places in the #world. Winter goes from October to June, with temperatures dropping to -50°C.
Resolute is the strategic point of one of the famous « Northwest Passage » routes, whose water sovereignty is in dispute, particularly with the United States.
Hence the recent installation of a Canadian Armed Forces training center.
Find out more about the militarization of the Arctic region by many #great powers with the #PrixCarmignacArctic ‘s photographs exhibited in the #French #photo #festivals : @lagacillyphoto & @festivalphotoguilvinec
*Qaussuituq means : « where there is no #dawn »

#Repost @smithsonianmagazine ・・・ Hi everyone!
This week, the @prixcarmignac is taking over the #Smithsonian feed with the award-winning work of 9th edition #PrixCarmignac laureates @kadirvanlohuizen and @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages), titled “Arctic: New Frontier,” currently on display at @saatchi_gallery in London, @festivalphotoguilvinec and @lagacillyphoto in France.
This reportage, which follows the photographers’ six month journey from April to September in #2018 as they covered the 15,000 kilometres of the #ArcticCircle, is a visual testimony examining the consequences of #climatechange on the entire region. The forces of #tourism, #militarization, exploitation of #gas and mineral #resources, and the opening of trade routes as a result of #globalwarming mean that the #Arctic is today the site of clashes between countries and multinationals who are locked in a chaotic competition for control of these zones.
Pictured above is Gordon Omnik who stands on watch to spot bowhead whales. The local #Inuit community is allowed to catch 10 of them each year. Normally, the hunting starts when the sea ice breaks in the spring: the whales migrating up north use the channels to come up to breathe. If the ice melts, the whales can swim around with more ease, which makes them much harder to hunt.

In case you missed it, to coincide with #WorldEnvironmentDay, @prixcarmignac will be taking over the feed with the award-winning work by 9th edition laureates @kadirvanlohuizen and @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages) titled “Arctic: New Frontier,” currently on display at @saatchi_gallery & @festivalphotoguilvinec.
“The Door to the Underworld,” a nickname given to the one-kilometer-long Batagaika crater, is a dramatic tadpole-shaped hole, a consequence of the thawing permafrost. It lies 400 miles north of Yakutsk, near the Yana river basin, and visitors often recall hearing a “disturbing melody”; a mixture of cracking ice and the stream of water flowing through the tundra.
This crater, photographed by 9th edition @prixcarmignac co-laureate @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages), is a testimony to the dramatic impact #climatechange has had in the Russian Arctic. Each year, it grows by approximately 100 feet according to the Institute of Applied Ecology.

« Arctic: New Frontier » : Yuri Kozyrev and Kadir van Lohuizen co-laureates of the 9th #PrixCarmignac documented the consequences of #globalwarming in the #Arctic region. One of them is the militarization of strategic areas.
Kadir van Lohuizen traveled in the North of #Canada, to Qaussuituq* in the South of Cornwallis Island. It’s one of the coldest inhabited places in the #world. Winter goes from October to June, with temperatures dropping to -50°C.
Resolute is the strategic point of one of the famous « Northwest Passage » routes, whose water sovereignty is in dispute, particularly with the United States.
Hence the recent installation of a Canadian Armed Forces training center.

Normally, the hunting starts when the sea ice breaks in the spring: the whales migrating up north use the channels to come up to breathe.

In just two weeks, the equivalent of 7,000 soccer fields were destroyed in the Brazilian Amazon.⠀
In 2018, over 20 200 acres of forest disappeared from the face of the earth which was a record. ⠀

“The Amazon basin is one of the most important ecosystems on this planet. Home of many cultures, the Amazon region provides biodiversity, beauty, water, food and much more. ⠀
But its balance is under threat : mining and oil extraction, illegal logging and deforestation, pollution of its rivers, are threatening life itself. ⠀
This year, the 10th edition of the Carmignac Photojournalism Award will highlight the Amazon basin, its beauties and its threats and will raise awareness about its importance for the planet. ⠀
I am honored to chair the jury of this important project.” – Yolanda Kakabadse⠀

In case you missed it, to coincide with #WorldEnvironmentDay, @prixcarmignac will be taking over the feed with the award-winning work by 9th edition laureates @kadirvanlohuizen and @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages) titled “Arctic: New Frontier,” currently on display at @saatchi_gallery & @festivalphotoguilvinec.
“The Door to the Underworld,” a nickname given to the one-kilometer-long Batagaika crater, is a dramatic tadpole-shaped hole, a consequence of the thawing permafrost. It lies 400 miles north of Yakutsk, near the Yana river basin, and visitors often recall hearing a “disturbing melody”; a mixture of cracking ice and the stream of water flowing through the tundra.
This crater, photographed by 9th edition @prixcarmignac co-laureate @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages), is a testimony to the dramatic impact #climatechange has had in the Russian Arctic. Each year, it grows by approximately 100 feet according to the Institute of Applied Ecology.

Fonctionnement
Sélectionné par un jury international, le lauréat reçoit 50.000 € lui permettant de réaliser un reportage de fond sur le terrain avec le soutien de la Fondation Carmignac qui finance ensuite, à son retour, une exposition itinérante et l’édition d’un livre monographique.
En 2015, le Prix Carmignac du photojournalisme s’est transformé en véritable « salle de rédaction ». Cette évolution majeure a permis à Narciso Contreras, 7ème lauréat, de revenir avec les toutes premières preuves d’esclavage de migrants en Libye – reportage révélé dans Paris Match et le Time en octobre 2016. En développant, édition après édition, une logique de partenariat actif avec de grands musées européens – Saatchi Gallery à Londres, Palazzo Reale à Milan, Fotografie Forum Francfort, Cité des sciences et de l’industrie à Paris, … – l’exposition du Prix attire, depuis 2017, plus de 500 000 visiteurs.

« Arctic: New Frontier » : Yuri Kozyrev and Kadir van Lohuizen co-laureates of the 9th #PrixCarmignac documented the consequences of #globalwarming in the #Arctic region. One of them is the militarization of strategic areas.
Kadir van Lohuizen traveled in the North of #Canada, to Qaussuituq* in the South of Cornwallis Island. It’s one of the coldest inhabited places in the #world. Winter goes from October to June, with temperatures dropping to -50°C.
Resolute is the strategic point of one of the famous « Northwest Passage » routes, whose water sovereignty is in dispute, particularly with the United States.
Hence the recent installation of a Canadian Armed Forces training center.
Find out more about the militarization of the Arctic region by many #great powers with the #PrixCarmignacArctic ‘s photographs exhibited in the #French #photo #festivals : @lagacillyphoto & @festivalphotoguilvinec

#Repost @smithsonianmagazine ・・・ Hi everyone!
This week, the @prixcarmignac is taking over the #Smithsonian feed with the award-winning work of 9th edition #PrixCarmignac laureates @kadirvanlohuizen and @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages), titled “Arctic: New Frontier,” currently on display at @saatchi_gallery in London, @festivalphotoguilvinec and @lagacillyphoto in France.
This reportage, which follows the photographers’ six month journey from April to September in #2018 as they covered the 15,000 kilometres of the #ArcticCircle, is a visual testimony examining the consequences of #climatechange on the entire region. The forces of #tourism, #militarization, exploitation of #gas and mineral #resources, and the opening of trade routes as a result of #globalwarming mean that the #Arctic is today the site of clashes between countries and multinationals who are locked in a chaotic competition for control of these zones.
Pictured above is Gordon Omnik who stands on watch to spot bowhead whales. The local #Inuit community is allowed to catch 10 of them each year. Normally, the hunting starts when the sea ice breaks in the spring: the whales migrating up north use the channels to come up to breathe. If the ice melts, the whales can swim around with more ease, which makes them much harder to hunt.

If the predictions are right, in 11 years during the summer there will be no more ice in the North Pole. The warmth will be absorbed by the ocean and the sea level temperature will rise even further up. It will have serious consequences on our climate and on the world sea maps.

“The Door to the Underworld,” a nickname given to the one-kilometer-long Batagaika crater, is a dramatic tadpole-shaped hole, a consequence of the thawing permafrost. It lies 400 miles north of Yakutsk, near the Yana river basin, and visitors often recall hearing a “disturbing melody”; a mixture of cracking ice and the stream of water flowing through the tundra.
This crater, photographed by 9th edition @prixcarmignac co-laureate @yuri.kozyrev (@noorimages), is a testimony to the dramatic impact #climatechange has had in the Russian Arctic. Each year, it grows by approximately 100 feet according to the Institute of Applied Ecology.
