“…it seems that the photographers much prefer obfuscating the realities they document, never allowing facts and knowledge to color their work…It is however deeply hypocritical because the very men and women who claim to cover the world’s ‘historic’ events, later attempt to feign ‘neutrality’ about the same events, hiding behind postmodernist positions while refusing to take a stand on the basis of clear and obvious principals.”
A brilliant article on the photography – and obfuscation – of the Iraq war by Asim Rafiqui. Food for thought.
