 The Balkans: Missing Lives

Nick's latest open air exhibition, to be shown on London's South Bank, portrays 15 families who lost relatives during the recent wars in the former Yugoslavia.

Missing Lives, will be showing on the Thames Pathway adjacent to the Oxo Tower between July 7-26, 2010.

The exhibition is the result of work commissioned by the International Committee of the Red Cross. Since 1991, the ICRC has been asked by families to trace 34,278 missing men and women from the wars between 1991-1995. The remains of half of them have now been found and identified often through DNA testing, the first time this groundbreaking technique was used in the aftermath of a major conflict.

After London, the exhibition will go on show between August and November in Belgrade, Sarajevo, Pristina, Mostar, Strasbourg, Banja Luka, Brussels and Zagreb. In 2011, it will be shown in three locations in Switzerland, Canada and the United States.

Missing Lives, a photographic book from Nick Danziger is also available with text by best-selling author Rory MacLean.

A Journey through Christian Ethiopia

Nick's exhibition, Between Heaven and Earth, will be shown in the Ethiopian capital in December 2010 at the National Gallery in Addis Ababa. From there it will tour a further four cities in the country.

Commissioned by the British Council, the 31 stunning photographs are a remarkable window into the life of Ethiopia's little-known Tewahedo Orthodox hristian Church, one of the oldest surviving Christian communities in the world.

For the project, Nick travelled several thousand kilometres across Ethiopia's central highlands capturing the Church's breathtaking antiquity and shedding light on an ancient culture facing new challenges.
