Tim Page became world renowned for his coverage of the Vietnam War. Wounded on multiple occasions he defined and epitomised the war photographer of his generation. As an activist and photojournalist he pushed the boundaries of press freedom to bring home the “truth”.
NAM contact explores Tim's contact sheets and the art of capturing the perfect 35mm frame. They are Page’s visual diaries, his observations and his storyboards of humanity and inhumanity through war.

The photographs, brilliantly lighted on dark walls, range from the violent to the absurd. They include pictures of dozens of bodies, victims of the shelling of a Croatian city; artillery fire painting bright orange lines in the night sky; and a Serbian policeman offering water to an elderly Kosovar Albanian as his colleagues burn the old man's village down.

Stark images by some of the world's best war photographers went on permanent display this week in Dubrovnik, stripping away Hollywood's gloss on war and the euphemisms of leaders who try to sanitise it. The War Photo exhibition is a vision of human conflict in the modern age that early visitors have called powerful, painful, beautiful, brutal, courageous and indispensable. |
*****Excellent exhibition. Well laid out with a clear and informative accompanying guide to put the exhibitions in context and give you some story behind the photos. It's a sobering moment but well worth investing an hour and the 40kuna entrance.
