And he has ventured further than any other photographer into the \u2018belly\u2019 of reactor #4, which will soon disappear under a gigantic New Safe Confinement. In an accompanying essay, Mikhail Gorbachev reflects on the significance of the events at Chernobyl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book is a priceless documentary, not least in the light of the latest nuclear disaster, at Fukushima, 25 years after Chernobyl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Great honours at the oldest and most prestigious photojournalist competition in the world: the volume The Long Shadow of Chernobyl by well-known photographer Gerd Ludwig won him the Best Photography Book Award at the Pictures of the Year International (POYI) competition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6425,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
