Background:
Tokyo subway sarin attack was an act of domestic terrorism perpetrated on 20 March 1995, in Tokyo, Japan, by members of the cult movement Aim Shirikyo. In five coordinated attacks, the perpetrators released sarin on three lines of the Tokyo Metro during rush hour, killing 14 people, severely injuring 50 (some of whom later died), and causing temporary vision problems for nearly 1,000 others. The attack was directed against trains passing through Kasumigaseki and Nagatacho where the Diet (Japanese parliament) is headquartered in Tokyo.
About the artist:
Seba Kurtis was born in Argentina in 1974. He studied journalism in Buenos Aires before leaving the country for Europe in the wake of the political and economic crisis of 2001. Several years spent as an illegal immigrant have informed much of his work, which explores the personal, social and cultural impact of irregular migration. Kurtis' work has been exhibited internationally, with solo shows in Europe and the USA, and his first book, Drowned (Here Press, 2011), was selected for the International Photobook Award at the International Photobook Festival, Le Bal, Paris, 2012. Kif (Here Press, 2013) is his second publication and was exhibited with solo shows at Withward gallery in London and in Manchester Photographic Gallery. Today Kurtis lives and works in Manchester.
"His photography is the sensitive extension of his robust nomad’s body with its magnanimous aura. It serves him as a performative means to talk about the world and to establish connections between world history and the individual story of his life in a sophisticated manner. As an artist Seba Kurtis is constantly on the move and is unconcerned by physical or aesthetic limits. He is among those who know that photography does not represent reality but that it is able to reveal its ruggedness, complexity and – above all – its inexhaustible poetry."

This photograph is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City.
Philip-Lorca diCorcia is an internationally exhibited and renowned American Photographer, based in New York City. diCorcia studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Botson, and received a Master of Fine Arts from Yale University, where he now teaches. diCorcia is a pioneer of staged depictions of everyday life, inspired in part by the artificiality of traditional American cinema. "I thought of the people as puppets who were unstrung, mercilessly disempowered – not preyed upon, but living on the edge and not by choice," diCorcia said of his earliest L.A. subjects. "So it was interesting to set up scenarios that often didn't portray the real circumstances." diCorcia first achieved notoriety for his series, "Hustlers" (1990-1992), for which he staged portraits of...
