Women War Photographers

May 2nd - July 31st 2006

Women War Photographers, this exhibit presents the work from five of the worlds leading photojournalists that cover war and conflict in different regions of the world. Alexandra Boulat from the photo agency VII exhibits her work from the break up of Yugoslavia. Ami Vitale introduces us to the conflict that continues to destroy the lives of the people of Kashmir. Kate Brooks of Polaris Images in New York visits both Afghanistan and Iraq. Heidi Levine / Sipa Press shares a collection of her fifteenplus years of photographing the Israel-Palestine conflict. Getty Images globe trotter Paula Bronstein explores the hardships of post-Taliban Afghanistan.

As we view these different conflicts though the eyes of these courageous photographers we discover that no matter where, when or to whom, armed conflict always has the same destructive effect on a population caught in its way.
