這位《華盛頓郵報》的投稿人在他2019年獲獎的作品集中，捕捉到了也門饑荒受害者。他向普利策獎講述了是什么吸引他來到這個地區(qū)，以及他對報道沖突國家平民斗爭的哲學(xué)。

Lorenzo Tugnoli of the Washington Post won the 2019 Feature Photography Prize "for brilliant photo storytelling of the tragic famine in Yemen, shown through images in which beauty and composure were intertwined with devastation."

《華盛頓郵報》的洛倫佐·圖格諾里獲得2019年專題攝影獎，“以精彩的照片講述了也門悲慘的饑荒，展現(xiàn)了美麗和鎮(zhèn)靜與災(zāi)難交織在一起的畫面。”

He spoke to the Pulitzer Prizes about what drew him to the Middle East from his native Italy, the artistry of photo journalism and his book project on artists in Afghanistan.

他在普利策獎頒獎典禮上談到，是什么吸引他從祖國意大利來到中東，攝影新聞的藝術(shù)性，以及他的書《阿富汗藝術(shù)家項目》。

Pulitzer Prizes: What brought you to the Middle East from Italy? Can you recall the first time you visited Yemen?

普利策獎:是什么讓你從意大利來到中東?你還記得你第一次訪問也門的情景嗎?

Lorenzo Tugnoli: I started working in the Middle East early in my career. I wanted to experience for myself the places that I saw in the news and then fell in love with the area.

洛倫佐·圖格諾里:我職業(yè)生涯早期就開始在中東工作。我想親身體驗我在新聞中看到的地方，然后我愛上了這個地方。

There are also a lot of similarities between the Middle East and Italy: It is the same Mediterranean Sea and the same light, we are both all about religion, food, family.

中東和意大利也有很多相似之處:都是同樣的地中海，同樣的陽光，我們都與宗教、食物、家庭有關(guān)。

I traveled to Yemen for the first time in 2018. I went twice, each time for over a month on assignment for the Washington Post. I have been working with Sudarsan Raghavan, the Cairo bureau chief, for a few years now.

我在2018年第一次去也門。我去了兩次，每次都是為《華盛頓郵報》工作一個多月。幾年來，我一直在與開羅分社社長蘇達(dá)桑•拉加萬共事。

He decided to go, and I was the natural choice for the photographer to be assigned with him. He has an incredible knowledge of the country and working with him was instrumental for me to understand such a complex political situation.

他決定去，而我是攝影師，自然被分配到他身邊。他對這個國家有著難以置信的了解，和他一起工作對我理解如此復(fù)雜的政治形勢很有幫助。

My award-winning photo-story was the result of teamwork: It could have not been possible without the support of my editors at the paper, MaryAnne Golon and Olivier Laurent, and their determination to cover the story deeply and thoroughly.

我的攝影故事獲獎是團(tuán)隊合作的結(jié)果:如果沒有我在報社的編輯瑪麗安娜·戈隆和奧利維爾·洛朗的支持，沒有他們深入徹底地報道這個故事的決心，是不可能完成的。

When we first arrived in Yemen in May 2018, there was a very limited coverage of the country. It was before the Khashoggi incident and no big outlet was interested in putting this faraway country on the front page, so it was really important to be part of such a team.

我們于2018年5月首次抵達(dá)也門時，對該國的報道非常有限。那是在卡舒吉事件之前，沒有大的媒體有興趣把這個遙遠(yuǎn)的國家放在頭版，所以成為這樣一個團(tuán)隊的一員真的很重要。

Now it is crucial to keep covering this conflict and this humanitarian crisis. The situation on the ground is getting worse and I hope there will be a chance to go back to continue telling this story.

現(xiàn)在繼續(xù)報道這場沖突和這場人道主義危機(jī)至關(guān)重要?，F(xiàn)場的情況越來越糟，我希望能有機(jī)會回去繼續(xù)講述這個故事。

PP: Your prize-winning portfolio includes many images of intimate moments between parents and children. Could you speak to your interest in capturing daily life under such difficult circumstances?

普利策獎:您獲獎的作品包括許多父母和孩子之間親密時刻的照片。你能談?wù)勀銓υ谌绱死щy的情況下記錄日常生活的興趣嗎?

LT: I have always been interested in covering the daily life and struggles of civilians in countries of conflict. This attitude makes it more difficult to produce images that fit the news, but concentrating on these quiet moments has allowed me to bring the observer closer to the subject.

洛倫佐·圖格諾里: 我一直對報道沖突國家平民的日常生活和平民斗爭很感興趣。這種態(tài)度讓我很難拍出符合新聞的照片，但專注于這些安靜的時刻使我能夠讓觀眾更了解主題。

PP: Your bio describes your work as "an ongoing exploration of the humanitarian consequences of conflicts in the region." How do you view a journalist's role in the context of war and famine?

普利策獎:你的自傳將你的工作描述為“對該地區(qū)沖突的人道主義后果的持續(xù)探索”。在戰(zhàn)爭和饑荒的背景下，你如何看待記者的角色?

LT: I think photographers and journalists have a responsibility as to how they decide to represent a certain place. Media has the power to influence how this or that story is told, and we are part of this machine.

洛倫佐·圖格諾里:我認(rèn)為攝影師和記者承擔(dān)著如何展現(xiàn)某個地方的責(zé)任。媒體有能力影響故事如何被講述，而我們是這個機(jī)器的一部分。
