« Peut-on être le héros d’une photographie comme on est le héros d’un film ? »

« La vie d’une icône – qu’on ne connaît que par ses photos – a tout de l’image d’Epinal »

Dans l’Atelier des icônes, le 2 juillet 2011, André Gunthert revient sur L’icône d’Ishinomaki.
Il cite un article du Yomiuri Shimbun (16/04/2011) qui permet de mettre en contexte la photo prise par Tadashi Okubo et exploitée par les couvertures des magazines.

extraits de l'article :
Yuko Sugimoto was staring bleakly in the direction of Ishinomaki Mizuho No. 2 Kindergarten which stood in the path of the tsunami. She had lost contact with her 5-year-old son and feared the worst.

In the kindergarten, the 14 teachers pulled the 11 children up to the roof. Gym mats were used to keep the wind off the children and stuffed animals and curtains were used to keep them warm.

Three days after the disaster, Yuko Sugimoto learned the children had been evacuated to Ishinomaki Senshu University. She rushed to the university and was finally reunited with Raito.
