	Carl De Keyzer Zona: Siberian Prison Camps March 1-May 23,2008 Downstairs Galleries To many Westerners, Siberia remains geographically and culturally distant, a place notorous for the horror of Stalin's prison camps. Officially disbanded in 1960, the legacy of the Gulag persists and today, the camps still house a million prisoners. Carl De Keyzer traveled to Siberia and photographed some 35 camps, revealing a harsh way of life totally isolated from the rest of the world. De Keyzer's images, often in startling color, jolt us with their immediacy and offer a rare insight into the lives of those inhabiting these isolated institutions. Presented in association with Magnum Photos. Click here for more information...
