Photographer Marco van Duyvendijk (1974, NL) spent
a winter and a summer in Mongolia in order to capture
daily life in this far-flung country. In this fascinating
nation age-old nomadic traditions, Asian culture, Buddhist
spirituality and the last traces of communism are mingling
with the modern influences that have been making themselves
felt since the quiet revolution of 1990. Van Duyvendijk’s
book includes not only images of century-old rituals
like falconry and the slaughtering of a horse in the
steppes, but also of bored kids in an amusement arcade
and hip youngsters sporting dreadlocks and piercings.
