Anti War Photography Exhibition Fundraiser
Table Quiz.....
Doyle's Pub, (downstairs)
Fleet Street/College Street,
Dublin `2.
Thursday, 28th August.

I would like to thank everyone that came to our last table quiz in the Teachers Club, we raised €417.
'Images of Resistance -inside and outside of Iraq', is the title of of an anti war photography exhibition that will be shown in the lead up to the US presidential election from October 1st - November 4th 2008, in the Gallery 1199, Manhattan, New York.
This gallery is owned by the SE11 trade union which represents over a million service and health workers (most of them immigrants or descendants of immigrants) in the USA. Recently the union pledged it's support to Barack Obama for the US presidential election.
The main purposes of the exhibition -through the medium of print and slide/dvd photography with audio commentary- is to help raise consciousness and awareness in the public of the opposition to wars, the plight of the people in war torn countries, the real reasons behind wars, to show some of the collateral damage of wars and the situations soldiers find themselves in.
I am in contact with soldiers serving or who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan etc, who's photography will form part of the documentary. We also have some images from Palestine etc included.
We hope to take this exhibition to countries that have any involvement in any wars or the arms industry .
Dennis Halliday (who resigned because of the lies from the Bush administration during 'the weapons of mass destruction controversy), the former UN Assistant Secretary-General and ex-UN Humanitarian Co-ordinator for Iraq and/or former US Attorney General, (under the LBJ administration) Ramsay Clarke (who is now an anti war and anti Bush campaigner), will be giving of their time to open the exhibition.
Recently you may have become aware of the problems encountered by one of the photographers, Zoriah Millar after he published some photos of the aftermaths of a suicide bombing in Anwar on 26th June, these included images of dead marines. He lost his embed accreditation as a result, he is now working in Gaza.
Below is a link to his website and an article about that controversy on the front page of The Herald Tribune, dated 26th July, which includes one of the photos.
