The 22-day attack on the Gaza Strip in 2008-9 left more than 1300 Palestinians dead, caused more than $1bn worth of damage to civil infrastructure, and destroyed or ruined thousands of homes. Klich&#8217;s work constitutes an original and compelling testimony. He spoke to Guy Lane about media representations of Gaza, the current state of photojournalism, and the need to bear witness.<\/p>\n<p><em>GL: How did the <\/em>Gaza Photo Album<em> originate? <\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>KK: It started back in 2000-1 after the start of the second Intifida. I  don&#8217;t know if you remember, but there was lots of talk about suicide  bombers, so I went to Gaza to visit some of the families of the bombers.  As you well know it was already called the biggest jail on earth  because people then, as they do now, had a really hard time getting out.  So I worked there 2001-2, co-operating with the Palestinian Centre for  Human Rights (PCHR) and the Gaza Mental Health Programme. After that I  went home and did a couple of stories which were published in magazines, and I  noticed afterwards that my work \u2013 it was black and white then \u2013 looked  pretty much like the rest of the work that came out of Gaza: normally,  violent angry men with weapons, or women crying.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"room2470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/room2470.jpg?resize=470%2C313&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"313\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"photo_copyright\">\u00a9 Kent Klich, The Home of Mohammed Akasha, doctor (from Gaza Photo Album)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>After 2002 I stopped working there, but I was still getting reports  from Gaza and thinking about the area. And while I was considering the  work \u2013 and why it looked much like most of the photographs coming  out of Gaza \u2013 I started thinking about the representation of the  Palestinians in the press in the West. I figured that I needed to look  at how images showed the public and the private aspects of Gaza life.  For example, there were very few photographs of the private. And there  was so much public horror and so many public problems that, in the  images, the Palestinians ceased to be like us. Of course, when you are  there meeting people and families, that&#8217;s almost ridiculous to talk  about, but I was thinking how they were represented in the press.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"room470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/room470.jpg?resize=470%2C313&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"313\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"photo_copyright\">\u00a9 Kent Klich, The home of Mohammed Shuhada&#8217;Ali Ahmed, unemployed (from Gaza Photo Album)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, in 2008 I thought about going back into Gaza. It was still  blocked off from the rest; people could not go out; construction  materials couldn&#8217;t get in. The PCHR started working on a project called  &#8216;Narratives under Siege&#8217; which I found very interesting because it was  focused on everyday life. But when I started thinking about meeting and  photographing the families involved, Operation Cast Lead happened. The  attack was so strong, and there were so many people killed \u2013 I think  we&#8217;re talking about more than 1400 \u2013 that I couldn\u2019t get in until  February 2009. I knew from the beginning that I wanted to work with family photographs,  or private aspects of life, to show the part of the representation  which is rarely seen. I spoke to the people at PCHR and said that I  really need your help to do this. We started working in all areas of  Gaza \u2013 but only interested in private houses. Of course, they suggested  factories, mosques and hospitals; but I said that we&#8217;ve all seen those  images, they will be shown all over, but we don&#8217;t see the interiors of  private homes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"room3470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/room3470.jpg?resize=470%2C313&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"313\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"photo_copyright\">\u00a9 Kent Klich, The home of Saleh Mohammed Lim Gayet, doctor (from Gaza Photo Album)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I was sure that if we would see people\u2019s apartments, their kitchens,  their bedrooms and their living rooms, you know, they would look  different&#8230; but there would also be a lot of similarities \u2013 to your home  or my home. And I thought the identification with the fate of the  Palestinians would be stronger that way.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>How strictly does Hamas control the area? Is there a relationship  between Hamas and  the Palestinian Centre which was helping you?<\/em><\/p>\n<p> I could work freely. I would meet up with a fact-finder in the morning  and then we would go to visit an area; and I also had people researching  so that every day we would go to a new place. No, there is no relation  at all between Hamas and PCHR. I never met anyone from Hamas \u2013 speaking  to me or wondering what I was doing. I didn\u2019t need to have any  discussions with Hamas at all.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>All the photos are landscape format <\/em>\u2013<em> did you conceive them as a book  immediately? <\/em><\/p>\n<p> Well usually I work on book ideas, and this is how I saw the project  straight away. And interestingly, on the third day I met a man who  showed me his family album. I had already had the idea that I wanted to  see people\u2019s albums because family history is \u2013 for me \u2013 an alternative  history.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"photoalbum470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/photoalbum470.jpg?resize=470%2C366&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"366\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"photo_copyright\">\u00a9 Kent Klich, from Gaza Photo Album<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, he showed me his album which I liked very much because  of its private nature, and the good times it showed amongst parents and  grandparents and so on. The cover of my Gaza Photo Album is actually a  photograph of the cover of his album. As soon as I saw it I thought this  will be the cover of my book.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>You\u2019ve spoken about how you wanted to produce something different to  the conventional reportage or photojournalistic material that usually  comes out of Gaza. I suppose that puts your work into a different area  of practice, moving it towards galleries and book publishing?<\/em><\/p>\n<p> Well, this is really interesting because one of the images from <em>Gaza  Photo Album<\/em> won First Prize in the General News category at World  Press. In a way I am moving from the media to the art world, and to  galleries and museums (usually I have more exhibitions in museums than  galleries). But what I think is happening \u2013 looking at Sweden or Denmark  for example \u2013 is that because journalism is having such a hard time  economically, there are less reporters out in the world, less reporters  working on long projects, less reporters reporting. But some of the  interesting bigger projects, which are basically journalistic from the  beginning, are now coming into the art world and are being supported by  arts foundations. So we\u2019re living in a time where there is a mix. The  Gaza work was first shown in April in Stockholm in an art gallery. Then I  had an exhibition in a New York gallery that does a lot of photography.  Now it has been exhibited at the Hasselblad Centre in Gothenburg. At  the same time they told me that I won the first prize at World Press.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"mural470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/mural470.jpg?resize=470%2C313&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"313\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"photo_copyright\">\u00a9 Kent Klich, The home of Sa&#8217;ber Dakhil Allah L&#8217;Ariah (from Gaza Photo Album)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>And have you returned to Gaza since the <\/em>Photo Album <em>work?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In December I was back borrowing and photographing from people\u2019s family  albums, copying their pictures. For the Hassleblad exhibition I made a  grid with 100 images from Gaza: from old black and white prints to  colour digital pictures. The old photographs are interesting because  they show different levels of history \u2013 in one image, for example, you  could see part of the train tracks that went through Gaza \u2013 from  Damascus to Egypt \u2013 in old times. Then there were pictures from overseas \u2013 Austria, London, Sweden \u2013 because so many Palestinians have been  forced to move out of the Middle East just to find work. You had  weddings, dancing, and beach scenes. You had all these different layers  in the display of 100 photographs. It is fascinating because unless we  have been there it is so little-known to us.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"beach470\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.foto8.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/beach470.jpg?resize=470%2C315&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"315\" width=\"470\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>If we can\u2019t identify with people, if we can\u2019t feel their grief or their  sorrow, if we cannot feel what they are living \u2013 because the conflict  is getting so out of hand \u2013 then we don\u2019t see them as people, but only  as masses. One hundred die, and then one thousand four hundred die. Then  I think it is as if they did not exist. <\/p>\n<p> For me the Gaza work is a way of saying \u2013 yes, they existed, they had a  name.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica;\">Gaza Photo Album &#8211; Kent Klich (publ.
