Trade Review"Survivors in Ukraine is an unconventional but potent documentation of Holocaust survivors in their twilight years." —TruthDig
"As a recorder of the fleeting but highly charged moments in the everyday, the weight of Shore's influence is undeniable." —Creative Review on Stephen Shore
"[Shore's] exquisitely composed colour photographs became the benchmark for documenting our consumer-driven, fast-living world." —Lexus magazine on Stephen Shore
"Shore invites readers to explore a nostalgic yet fresh observation of a moment in history... [and] with his talent for composition and colour, unites the shades of life's histories into a depiction of endurance and humility" —Aesthetica
"Survivors In Ukraine merges landscape, observation and portraiture. Its evocation of a place and its people is made all the more powerful by the history - and the personal stories of survival - that haunt the images. ...For all the weight of history that attends the project, it is a quiet book. It brims with telling details... [Shore's] quietly observational images speak not just of survival, but of an extraordinary individual and collective resilience" —The Guardian
"I've the utmost respect for photographers and storytellers who dedicate years of their lives to one subject and give us in-depth insights into world's we'd otherwise know very little about."—Elena Heatherwick, Elle
