The Seen Gallery: Atlanta to Baghdad

Opening Saturday, Oct 25, 7-10 pm
Manuel Llaneras 2004: Atlanta to Baghdad

The year after the American invasion of Iraq, Llaneras accompanied playwright Eric McAfee to Baghdad. Llaneras photographed throughout Baghdad and several of the city's refugee camps. At home he documented public demonstrations to oppose and support the war. These photographs capture drama brought on by the war, and bring to light the absurdity and humanity of the everyday. The show runs through December 3.
