These are the pictures the media has refused to print. This is the real face of what is going on around us, while they prefer we live with our eyes glued to the tv sets and their euphoric version of reality.

To quote my friend Omar in NY:
“…a dear friend of mine set up this exhibit in
NY. He lives in the apartment downstairs and called me
to the basement to show me the rough edit before he
took it to the gallery. And so in my own rush to pack
and get going on my own trip the next day, I was the
first person to see these images together, for
whatever that is worth.
It brought tears to my eyes (the Luke Wolagewiecz
picture in particular) Also the picture of the boy
with the blood on his face and staring straight in to
the lens of the camera struck me as an omen too of
foreboding of the real upshot of the ‘winning the
hearts of minds’ that we hear about. 
That is what is
coming back at us. And coming back at us with a
vengeance.
The whole project was born out of his and other conflict
photographers frustrations that newspapers and
magazines would not print the photographs in the
exhibit or worse yet recaption the images to to other
ends. I kid you not.”
