The portrait is central to Fazal Sheikh's work. For more than two decades, as he has worked in different communitiesaround the world, the invitation to sit for a portrait has been one of the principle means by which he has establisheda link with his subjects and been allowed to enter and document their lives. Often these have been people in crisis:displaced from their homes and their countries, at risk from violence, poverty and prejudice. This book takes in the fullrange of Fazal Sheikh's work, from his earliest portraits taken in African refugee camps, through long-term projects inAfghanistan and Northern Pakistan, Somalia and Kenya, to more recent work in South America and in India. Itconsiders the role of the portrait within this kind of social enquiry: the balance of its aesthetic and narrative qualities,its capacity for empathy and also for distance; the values of the collaborative portrait, and the moral ambivalence thatsurrounds this approach to documenting the lives of disadvantaged people within the context of contemporary art.Fazal Sheikh was born in 1965 in New York City. His previous books include A Sense of Common Ground (Scalo1996), The Victor Weeps (Scalo 1998), A Camel for the Son and Ramadan Moon (International Human Rights Series2001), Moksha (Steidl 2005), Ladli (Steidl 2007) and The Circle (Steidl 2008), Fazal Sheikh (TF Editores 2009).
