Belarus' Legacy exhibited at Les Boutographies 2021 Festival | Jef Bonifacino

 

Belarus' Legacy of photographer Jef Bonifacino will be exhibited during the Festival Les Boutographies in Montpellier, from May 15 to June 30, 2021.

This story explores several important places of memory across Belarus and reveals traces of the country's history in order to highlight its present. More particulary, the exclusion zone of Chernobyl: Just 35 years ago, the Chernobyl power plant exploded. Direct fallout affects mainly Belarus. The exclusion zone of Chernobyl, 30 km² around the power plant, is created, straddling Ukraine (40%) and Belarus (60%).
