War and Conflict through the Lens of the Camera
Pulitzer Prize winning photojournalists Greg Marinovich and Craig F. Walker have captured the horrors and the humanity, the tragedy and the toll of war and conflicts through their photography. In very different conflicts, each has confronted risk, including to themselves, to shed light on the realities of war and geopolitical conflict by powerfully documenting individual stories. Their work displays both the inhumanity and the humanity of conflict, and searches for meaning. Theirs are photographs that stop us in our tracks. They are images that shed light on events happening half a world away, yet they also have an effect on us. They make each story personal and real and bring those stories home in a way that only a fantastic split second image can.
Join the Ford Hall Forum for a conversation with two award-winning photojournalists as they discuss their work, and the individual and human stories they have documented in the midst of conflict.
