JIPFest and Magnum Photos proudly present a 5-day documentary workshop in Jakarta, Indonesia with Carl de Keyzer, an award-winning photographer and a Magnum member since 1994.

With close to 40 years of experience in photography, De Keyzer is largely known for his uncanny ability to take on global issues that greatly impact humanities, including the collapse of the Soviet Union, modern-day power and politics in North Korea, and religious life on the margins of American society. His monumental works are documented in numerous books and being recognized with a large number of awards including the Book Award from the Arles Festival and the Kodak Award.

Throughout this intensive workshop, participants will produce a new body of work under the guidance of De Keyzer through a series of shooting sessions, group sessions and one-on-one portfolio reviews. As a mentor, De Keyzer will provide guidance on narrative, editing and sequencing. Besides the workshop, participants are also welcomed to attend Public Lecture by De Keyzer.

Magnum Photos Workshop at JIPFest will be held from 6 – 10 July 2020 in Jakarta, Indonesia. This program is part of the festival’s partnership with Magnum Photos, an international photographic cooperative with offices in New York City, Paris, London and Tokyo. Magnum was founded in 1947 by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, George Rodger and David Seymour.
