Marc Riboud, with his outstanding photographs witnessing our times, was one of the most representive photojounalists and artists of today. Living in an age when terrorism and natural disasters frequently occur all over the world, where the boundary between fantasy and reality is fading away rapidly, his works, while reflecting his respect for humannature and his "photographs must be taken without an exchange of glances between the photographer and the subject. Without giving, without returning anything, I just shoot.", said Mark Riboud. Nevertheless, We can receive so many medssages from his photographs.Marc Riboud's works convey his joy of seeing, as well as his deep sorrow for today's world.
