Donald WeberDonald Weber was originally trained as an architect and worked with urban theorist Rem Koolhaas' Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. He has since devoted himself to the study of how power deploys an all-encompassng theatre for its subjects; what he records is its secret collaboration with both masters and victims. Weber is the author of two books. His first, Bastard Eden, Our Chernobyl (Photolucida 2011) asked a simple question: What is daily life actually like, in a post-atomic world? His second book, Interrogations (Schilt Publishing 2011), about post-Soviet authority in Ukraine and Russia, has gone on to great acclaim; it was included in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger's seminal The Photobook: A History, Volume III. Weber is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Lange-Taylor Prize, the Duke and Duchess of York Prize, two World Press Photo Awards, PDN's 30, as well as being named an Emerging Photo Pioneer by American Photo and shortlisted for the prestigious Scotiabank Photography Prize.
