Stephan Vanfleteren (Belgium) lives and works in his native Belgium. His
black-and-white documentary photography covers the disappearance of
small, anarchic worlds and the phenomena of everyday life in Belgium,
as well as events from conflict zones and portrayals of day-to-day life
around the world.
Having once worked for the daily edition of De Morgen
newspaper, Stephan now contributes to its weekend supplements. His
association with World Press Photo includes participation in the 1998
Joop Swart Masterclass, receiving awards in different categories, as
well as sitting on the jury of the 2006 contest.
Stephan's work has been exhibited throughout Western Europe. Books presenting his photography include Elvis & Presley, Tales from a Globalizing World and most recently Portret 1989/2009, with portraits of Dutch and Belgian artists and leading figures. |  © Joost van den Broek | |
