Stephen Dupont
Generation AK:
The Afghanistan Wars 1993–2012
Generation AK: The Afghanistan Wars 1993–2012 is a retrospective selection of images of the country where Dupont
has covered everything from civil war and the rise of the Taliban in the 1990s, to the launch of Operation Enduring
Freedom and the ongoing war on terrorism. Dupont completed much of this work on self-funded trips and as part of
one of the last small independent photographic agencies, Contact Press Images, of which he has been a member since
1997. In 2008 he survived a suicide bombing while traveling with an Afghan opium eradication team near Jalalabad.
Stephen Dupont, born in Sydney, Australia, in 1967, is an award-winning photojournalist, documentary filmmaker, and
war correspondent. He is internationally recognized for his work in some of the world’s most dangerous areas, including
Afghanistan, Burma, Cambodia, Iraq, Papua New Guinea, Rwanda, Somalia, and Zaire.
