    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT Suzanne Luke, Curator Robert Langen Art Gallery 519-884-0710 ext. 3801 or [email protected] Kevin Crowley, Director Communications & Public Affairs, Wilfrid Laurier University 519-884-0710 ext. 3070 or [email protected] OCT. 24, 2014 | 104-14 Robert Langen Art Gallery exhibit features video of nighttime military raid WATERLOO – The latest exhibition at Wilfrid Laurier University’s Robert Langen Art Gallery features a video installation filmed during a nighttime raid of a suspected bomb facilitator’s home in Afghanistan’s Kunar province. The exhibit, entitled Nightwalk, presents a moving experimental video that captures the complexities of military conflict and human displacement. The artist behind Nightwalk is Larry Towell, a renowned Canadian photographer who has photographed war zones around the world. For Towell, producing the video-based Nightwalk is a departure from his usual work, which revolves around still photography. “I have spent my life documenting many of the world's most violent conflicts, from Central America to the Middle East,” said Towell. “In order to challenge the dominant consensus of my culture and to work from a peace and human rights perspective, it is necessary for me to physically engage. My photographs are not planned nor composed in advance. I do not set them up in a studio, and I do not anticipate that the audience will necessarily share my opinion.” In addition to his numerous international awards, Towell holds the distinction of being the first Canadian to be associated with Magnum, the world’s most prestigious photo agency. His photography has been published in magazines such as LIFE, The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, Elle, Rolling Stone, Geo and Stern, in addition to his several exhibitions in Canada, the U.S.

Larry Towell is a creative soul who graces us with his images and accompanies us with a reason through the stories that he chooses to tell. When I was Archive Director at Magnum New York many years ago, I clearly remember the days when photographers, who did not live close by, came to visit the office and spend a few days. It was always about work of course, but also about encountering those human beings that we got to know on a daily basis through their images. Larry’s trips to New York were my favorites. He would walk in with a soft smile and always automatically create a familiar and peaceful atmosphere around the office. His roundish glasses, his ubiquitous straw hat and suspenders were the signature style. And some things don’t change. The hat, the suspenders, as well as a declared preference for film without refusing new technologies and media, and the irreplaceable love for darkroom printing. Larry’s glance and vision, whether in war or at home, is full of compassion and care.

While the Museum was far from immune from the financial crisis, 2008 for Eastman House was a year in which the strategic planning process had trustees and staff together focusing on the core values and principal strengths of the Museum—work that positioned the Museum well for the George Eastman House unforeseen economic decline.

  • Fighting with Fire: James Nachtwey's Inferno and Contemporary War Photography
    Fighting with Fire: James Nachtwey's Inferno and contemporary war photography Samantha Baker Senior Capstone Art History Methodology Seminar 487 Professor Joanna Inglot May 2013 1 By sight, but by the sound a little runnel; Makes as it wends the hollow rock it flow; Has worn, descending through its winding channel: To get back up to the shining world from there... And following its path, we took no care; To rest, but climbed... Through a round aperture I saw appear; Some of the beautiful things that Heaven bears... - Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy, Inferno1 A large black and white photograph (Fig. 1) shows the right side of a man’s face, our attention drawn to deep scars across his skin - scars hitting cartilage, maybe bone, taking off part of his ear, slicing into his mouth. The man grasps his neck as if to reveal his scars. Even though his wounds have now healed, they will never retreat completely. Viewers may have various responses when seeing this photograph from the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide: wonder at this man’s survival of such a horrific physical attack or vulnerability at the recognition of the human body’s fragility; embarrassment at a lack of knowledge regarding the genocide this man experienced or pain from what we do know of the Rwandan genocide; admiration for the beautiful composition, inquisition about whether this man is a victim or perhaps also a perpetrator–the thoughts go on. Our comprehension of this photograph likely mixes many differing responses and in doing so complicates our relationship to the image as viewers.
