Informed by fashion and art photography, Alaoui's photojournalism projects across the SWANA region nonetheless maintain a compassionate, humanitarian eye

Admired Moroccan French photographer Leila Alaoui (1982-2016) brought to light a full spectrum of striking beauty and challenging realities by blending techniques from fashion and fine art portraiture with photojournalistic storytelling. She was among the first photographers to portray the global refugee crisis in contemporary art, and volunteered for assignments with a number of human rights organizations. Released to commemorate a decade since her life was taken in a terrorist attack in Burkina Faso where she was working for Amnesty International, this eponymous monograph is edited by arts writer and friend of the photographer Kasia Maciejowska. It features insightful tributes by cultural figures such as Iranian artist Shirin Neshat, Yves Saint Laurent's partner Pierre Bergé and UNHCR commissioner Bruno Rotival.
