• W306269135 abstract "____International Center of Photography 1133 Avenue of the Americas--New York, NY 10036 Ph 212.857,0000 March 12-May 30, 2004 Photographs convey multiple layers of information through the recorded trace of one fleeting moment that can appear either artistically expressive or plainly documentary Photography, however, is needed for purposes of investigation, thereby upholding it as a source that functions as a visual index to facts that are often within the daily periphery. In this context, the image evolves from being an aesthetically subjective object to one that is certifiably a factual testimony of historical importance. War, that photojournalism has documented in order either to challenge its bases or to generate propaganda, can sometimes be seen as the epitome of the reportage genre. Many young photographers see it that way until they get there, and protest. The International Center of Photography currently hosts War in Iraq: The Coordinates of Conflict, a selection of images taken by the members of a new photo-agency, VII founded in 2001 by 7 war photographers, with among them the now famous James Natchwey, recently wounded in Iraq. The selection of photographs presented by this group captures various perspectives of the catastrophic events that led us to where we find ourselves today at home, in the Middle East, and on the international scene. Serendipity was also present on that clear morning of September 11th, James Natchwey also happened to be in New York City, back from Paris where he had just annouced the birth of VII, while Magnum, another agency founded by war photographers, was holding its annual meeting a stone's throw away from what would soon become Ground Zero. James Natchwey's pictures of the World Trade Center represent the chaos that descended upon New York City once both towers were struck, revealing the dense debris that layered the entire downtown area for months. Office and rescue workers are seen navigating through the streets, covered with gray dust, making their way to safety. One image depicts firefighters bringing Father Michael Judge out on a chair in which he had collapsed, while others portray those working with urgency to save the wounded. These images vividly bring back the hours of utter confusion that followed the collapse of the twin towers. In an essay titled Day One, Natchwey describes the beautiful, bright morning that nearly everyone awoke to that September 11th before becoming part of a national pandemonium a couple of hours later. Risking his life to take the images that have been seen around the world since in the pages of Time magazine, Nachtwey states: It's ironic that both local and national authorities have continued to refer to the photographs of Ground Zero when if it had been completely in their power, photographers would have been banned, and we would have been deprived of a valuable, historic legacy. (19) Most of them were effectively banned, and some images censored for a while, at least in this country. Of course there are famous examples of how information was delayed on its way to the public, one occurred most noticeably during the Vietnam War, when the massacre of My Lai that took place in 1968 was not reported until 1969, eighteen months later. Examples of doctored photographs and narratives were recently used by the British and American governments as evidence to begin an engagement in current international warfare. As shown in the ICP exhibition, VII worked throughout the Afghanistan and Iraq campaigns, and followed the path of military combat. Ron Haviv, for example, traveled with the Northern Alliance as they fought against opposing Taliban factions. The picture he took of a dying commander forces the observer to witness one of the crude realities of war. Quite similarly, Nachtwey's portrait of a 7-year-old boy, named Khairuddin, is especially moving after one has read in the caption explaining how he was collecting pieces of wood chips, as every day, for the sustenance of the family fire when he was hit. …" @default.
