MATERIAL WORLD – A Global Family Portrait

Sixteen of the world’s foremost photographers traveled to thirty nations around the globe to live for a week with families that were statistically average for that nation. At the end of each visit, the visiting photographer took a remarkable portrait of the family members outside their home, surrounded by all of their possessions. Markedly, this was a few jars and jugs for some, and an explosion of electronic gadgetry for others.

Vividly portraying the look and feel of the human condition everywhere on Earth, this book puts a human face on the issues of population, environment, social justice, and consumption. It leads us to ask some crucial questions about oursleves and our world today?
