About
Born in 1975 in St. Petersburg, Russia. After obtaining a degree in French linguistics worked as translator but then decided to start a new career path as photojournalist. Since 2006, Max has been photographing in various Russian regions (Caucasus, Siberia, Urals, Astrakhan, etc.), Belarus, Armenia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Kazakhstan, etc., both as part of his personal projects and on assignments. In his stories he is trying to give reporting on social issues a historical dimension, to portray how things that happened in the past still affect people’s lives today. His work appeared in Ogoniok magazine, Afisha, Der Spiegel, Der Standard, etc. He has exhibited in St.Petersburg, Vienna, Moscow, etc. Speaks Russian, English and French. Represented by Anzenberger Agency in Vienna since 2007. Blog: http://abel-djassi.livejournal.com
