PHOTOGRAPHY: IMAGES OF WAR A museum devoted to war photography is to
open in June in Dubrovnik, in southern Croatia, Agence France-Presse
reported. Described by its curators as the first of its kind, the
institution, tentatively called the Museum of War, will be inaugurated
by "Blood and Honey," an exhibition by 10 photographers who covered the
conflict in the 1990's in Croatia, Bosnia, Kosovo and Macedonia. "The
focus will be on the world's greatest war photographers, and their work
will be used to educate the public," said Wade Goddard, the museum's
director. "Our aim is to take away the Hollywood image that war is only
about glory." Exhibitions are planned about the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict, the Sept. 11 attacks and the invasion of Iraq.
