Sochi 2014

American photographers John Huet and David Burnett were commissioned by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to create a personal record of the Olympic Games in their own way; these new books are the result of that freedom and artistry. They capture the essence and adventure of the Olympic Games through stunning and unconventional images that reflect the greatness of the human spirit involved. Over 45 full colour photographs are accompanied by fascinating commentaries by both Huet and Burnett on how they achieved these breath-taking images. Each volume also features an introduction giving personal insights by both photographers into their approach to their work and their vision of the Olympiads as captured in these photographs.
