WAR

Since September 11th, 2001, most Americans have seen the War on Terror unfold on television, receiving a broadcasted view of the war quite different from the ongoing ground wars as experienced by U.S. troops deployed in Afghanistan and Iraq. WAR USA, Afghanistan, Iraq offers a detailed view of what America has faced since the attack on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, prying into the three major crises of the 21st century from a social, political, and militaristic standpoint.

The photographs span from the destruction at Ground Zero on the morning of September 11th to the hunt for Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan, and the air strikes and US occupation of Iraq.
They inspire a powerful vista of what international turmoil has extracted from the hearts of many human beings in the three different locations. In WAR, photojournalism finds itself at a peak of critical witnessing, full of a caliber of honesty and compassion that makes the photographers shine in the field of documentary image making.
