Running Fence
by Geoffrey James
Welsh-born, Toronto-based photographer Geoffrey James is known for his work in culturally charged landscapes. Running Fence documents the first 14 miles of the border fence separating the United States and Mexico. With its ironic reference to Christo, James' Running Fence explores the contradictions of the border in the context of globalization. Of this project James writes, "I photographed along both sides of the fence -- this strange, improvised barrier demarcating two cultures, two mentalities, and two economies, that are also one I went to the border as an outsider. What I came back with can make no claim to be anything other than the astonished presentation of facts." James has exhibited internationally at documenta 9 at Kassel and at major museums throughout North America.

Dark Odyssey
by Murray Sayle
Philip Jones Griffiths, one of this century's master photographers, is unparalleled at creating relentlessly perceptive images that encompass the beauty, the atrocities, the ceremonies, the moments of brutality and compassion that coalesce as history. Griffiths's eagerly anticipated retrospective Dark Odyssey traces his forty-year journey through this chaotic world, from the wide horizon of his native Wales to the ravaged villages of war-torn Vietnam, in more than one hundred astounding black-and-white photographs. In each of his pictures, Griffiths creates a complex diagram of meaning and emotion. The collision of culture and ideology is often the basis of the work - sometimes in a simple pairing of figures, sometimes in a dizzying throng of life: the arresting, straightforward gazes of a Vietnamese child and her war-disfigured mother; the dazed face of a woman lost among the multitude of graves at a cemetery in Hiroshima; the wicked glee of a boy about to hurl a boulder into a grand piano, outside under an ominously dark sky. Griffiths's photographs tackle love, death, frivolity, politics, violence...they comment - ironically and profoundly - on virtually every aspect of human life, offering a gripping and unforgettable view of both the devastations and the beauties of our era.
Bound for Glory
by Paul Hendrickson
An array of 180 full-color photographs from the Library of Congress's Farm Security Administration collection, taken by FSA photographers from 1939 to 1943, creates a vivid portrait of America as it began to emerge from the Great Depression and prepared to fight World War II.
