The exhibition will feature...the artistic work of German sculptress Nele Ströbel, who travelled to one of the world’s biggest graveyards of ships in Chittagong, on the south-eastern coast of Bangladesh...[and] the striking pictures which French photographer Pierre Torset has taken in the shipbreaking yards of Chittagong...We will use the opening event to further explore the question of shipowners’ responsibility for clean and safe shiprecycling and their role in a solution of the global shipbreaking crisis.
