From North Korea to ICE: Photojournalist David Guttenfelder on the front lines in Minneapolis

Cover image: arts24 © FRANCE 24

David Guttenfelder from The New York Times has spent 35 years photographing history around the world. Now, he is documenting it at home. The award-winning photojournalist is known for his work in Rwanda, North Korea and conflict zones across the globe. This year, he turned his camera on Minneapolis, documenting the federal immigration crackdown and deadly clashes involving ICE. His exhibition "The People of Minneapolis vs. ICE" is currently on show at the Visa pour l'Image photojournalism festival in Perpignan.

Guttenfelder, of The New York Times, joins arts24 to discuss photographing ICE operations in his own city, the deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and what it means to document history unfolding on your doorstep. He also reflects on his extraordinary career, from North Korea to the aftermath of George Floyd's killing.

Plus, we pay tribute to Visa pour l’Image co-founder Jean-François Leroy and look at the festival’s first-ever retrospective dedicated to legendary French photographer Raymond Depardon.
