TATE - Look through the war photographer's lens


Tate logo
Tate Shots: Don McCullin
Can the camera speak for victims and casualties of war? This is the question asked by Don McCullin and war photographers across the world.

From the immediate trauma of war in the eyes of Don McCullin’s Shell-shocked US Marine to the destruction of buildings and landscapes documented by Simon Norfolk's Afghanistan: Chronotopia, explore the passing of time through over 150 years of conflict, since the invention of photography.
View the legacy of war as artists and photographers have captured it in retrospect.BOOK NOW
