A retrospective of the work of Roger Lemoyne published by Les 400 Coups, Details obscurs brings together about 52 of his most eloquent images from many of the world’s most troubled regions. Although lyrical and touching the black and white images in this book are not necessarily coffee table fare. The subject is modern warfare and Lemoyne, who has documented the turmoil in Rwanda, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Sierra Leone, Israel and Palestine among others, vividly captures all its horror. In his distinguished tenure as a photojournalist Roger Lemoyne has always tried to show the intimate and human side of the conflict; the everyday lives of people who are not the subject of mainstream news stories, who in their marginalization are nearly invisible and whose lives have been entirely destroyed by these conflicts. In the spirit of the journalist and traveler Lemoyne says, “It comforts me to think that my photographs can contribute to our collective understanding of what transpires in other parts of the world.”
