In The Haunted Eye, Steve McCurry revisits more than forty years of archives and offers a fresh perspective on his work, featuring numerous previously unpublished images alongside more iconic ones. Through first-person essays, the photographer reflects on his approach and his various long-term projects. The visual power of this collection reflects the vision of one of the most influential Magnum photographers of his generation, who constantly challenges the way we see people, places, and the history unfolding before our eyes.
"While the career of this great photographer was built on images that are now iconic, akin to monoliths erected against History, this book has chosen to take paths less traveled and more discreet, exploring different territories, probing new depths in his fathomless archive and offering a new measure of it."
Anne Morin (excerpt from the book)
