Photo-journalist focusing on social, cultural and environmental issues. www.julioetchart.com
Grew up in Uruguay, later settled in the UK and studied Documentary Photography at Newport Art College. Have since travelled round the world for the international media and have also worked as still photographer, consultant and researcher for film and TV companies.
I regularly take commissions from recording labels, PR and touring agencies, promoters and magazines to cover musical events, festivals, dance and theatre (see the music and the bollywood portfolio sections)
Have also produced audiovisual material and touring displays for Non Governmental Organizations like War on Want, Save The Children, OXFAM, Christian Aid, CAFOD, VSO, UNICEF, the British Council and the European Union.
After being awarded a World Press Photo First Prize in the Environment category, I produced 'The Four Elements', a touring exhibition on ecological issues, sponsored by the European Union.
My long term project on children’s play around the world, 'Toys' has been published by Mets & Schilt of Amsterdam in Dutch, German and English. It is distributed by Pluto Books in the UK and the USA.
