Anthony Suau won the Pulitzer Prize for his photographs of the famine in Ethiopia, and the Robert Capa Gold Medal for his coverage of the war in Chechnya. Now he brings his camera home to America for an unsettling account of how the war in Iraq has affected this nation, in a conversation with John Darnton, The New York Times, and cultural critic David Levi Strauss

This lecture is part of the Aperture Foundation Lectures: Confounding Expectations: Photography and the Arts, and is presented in collaboration with the Aperture Foundation, The New School Photography Department, Parsons School of Design, and the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at The New School. This event is presented as part of the Vera List Center’s program cycle on “Homeland.”
