Beyond Sochi. Having lived in Tbilisi and photographed in the Caucasus on and off for twenty years, Magnum Photographer Thomas Dworzak did a number of trips across the border to the Northcaucasus, Sochi and Abkhazia in the last two years. He was commissioned by National Geographic, trying to get a sense of the bigger picture of the region in view of the upcoming Olympic Winter games; The forgotten Circassians, the Cossack revival, Putin, the Olympic build up, the Islamic insurgency in Kabardino Balkaria, occupied Abkhazia were the main themes. This collection of pictures is a sort of diary, scratch book, of his travels. Beyond the few pictures that made it into the magazine. Some iphone pictures and polaroid versions of pictures taken on National Geographic Assignment, the whole being published as a 1000 limited copies box set of maps by edition Seriti in Paris and an ebook edition. Opening Wednesday 5 February 7pm.
