I would highly recommend this website which highlights an age old question, how effective is photography at changing anything? Is there a valid reason to take pictures of another's suffering and what would happen if we didn't, would the absence of images be as eloquent as the images of those that are missing? This thought provoking exhibition (and accompanying website Imaging Famine) is a must for anyone studying photography. Although the exhibition has now emended the website is still live. I have spoken to the exhibition organisers who are trying to get the exhibition transferred to Bolton University where we will be invited to view the work.
