Photojournalism as ethics, as a genre, has been hijacked by \u201cphotojournalism\u201d \u2013 the style. The style suggests then \u201ctruth\u201d, objectivity, justice, the rule of error, et cetera.<\/p>\n<p>How is it that when photographing action the idea of \u200b\u200bwhat photojournalism is and should be is going to be undermined?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA story needs someone to tell it.\u201d Will we be able to take back the meaning of photojournalism, and give meaning to our readers, through authorial photographs? It\u2019s our only hope.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to photography, Donald Weber originally trained as an architect and worked with Rem Koolhaas in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.\u00a0Weber is the author of three photography books, including Interrogations, about post-Soviet authority in Ukraine and Russia, published to much acclaim.<\/p>\n<p>He is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, and two World Press Photo Awards.
