Max Pinckers (b. 1988) is a Belgian artist/photographer. In his work he explores the critical, technological and ideological structures which underpin the creation and consumption of documentary images. For Pinckers, creating a documentary is a speculative process in which reality and truth can be used as multiple and mouldable concepts. He has received several international prizes, including the Prix Levallois, the Edward Steichen Award Luxembourg and the Leica Oskar Barnack Award.
Max Pinckers（1988年生）是比利时艺术家/摄影师。他在作品中探究支撑纪实影像创作与消费的批判、技术与意识形态结构。对 Pinckers 来说，创作纪实作品是一种投机性的过程，在其中现实与真相可以被当作多元且可塑的概念来使用。他获得了若干国际奖项，包括 Prix Levallois、卢森堡 Edward Steichen Award，以及 Leica Oskar Barnack Award。

The book is published to accompany the solo exhibition Max Pinckers – Double Bind in the Photo Museum of Antwerp from November 26, 2021 until March 13, 2022.
