Michael Pritchard The picture story and magazine photography has its originals back to the late nineteenth century, coming to a high point between the 1930s and 1960s. The recent revival in strong illustrated storytelling in print (and online) is exemplified by The Raw Society which is rooted in photojournalism, carefully selected stories and great presentation. In an age of television and social media, it shows the continued value of the still image and magazine format.
Rooted in slow photo-journalism and global storytelling, The Raw Society Magazine is for readers interested in the arts, travel, politics and social issues. Comprised of 13 photo stories exploring the traditions of Brazilian candombe, life's impermanence, the last Serbs of Kosovo, the Kurdish struggle for peace, national dog show competitions, the intersection of food and religion, and more, Issue Three of The Raw Society Magazine brings light to life, culture, and history on nearly every continent in the world.
