Description

The Forgotten is a profound and unflinching photography monograph by the late American artist Rosalind Fox Solomon. Published by MACK, the volume spans five decades of work across six continents, focusing on individuals whose lives have been permanently altered by war, chemical warfare, and displacement. From landmine survivors in Cambodia to victims of Agent Orange in Vietnam, Solomon’s compassionate lens avoids the tropes of photojournalism, instead offering a psychological encounter with the “face of the event.” These 78 black-and-white plates serve as a permanent memorial to human resilience and a sharp critique of the merciless pursuit of power, compelling the viewer to confront realities that global history often attempts to forget.
