Gili Yaari, Israel Photojournalist. Publication - Featured in The British Journal of Photography. May 22 , 2014.
"Yaari is a photojournalist, first and foremost, focusing on reportage but often documenting life in his homeland. “Israel is such a small country, and the contrast between the various religious groups – secular, Ultra-Orthodox, Jewish, Christian, Muslim – is fascinating, even from a visual perspective.”
His empathetic eye and forethought enable him to capture the rich complexity of the Israeli landscape from a perspective afforded few, resulting in numerous international photography prizes and exhibitions, the most recent of which was a 2015 Sony World Photography Award for his image, Purim Holiday In Jerusalem, from the series Ultra-Orthodox Jews Celebrate Purim in Mea Shearim 2014, one of the most visually intriguing series in his ample body of work."
