Anti War Photography Exhibition Fundraiser
'Musicians Against War'....Blues and Rock and Roll.......
The Hub, Temple Bar, Dublin 2
Saturday, 6th September, 8pm....line up to follow.
This is to help fund the anti war photography exhibition,
'Images of Resistance -inside and outside of Iraq.
We received no help at all from the Irish Arts Council, so we had to pare back the costs just to whatever we need to pay for printing and framing the images, with some small additional costs for flyers and posters etc.
Any photographers travelling are doing so at their own expense.
The costs to stage the work in New York will be at least €2,500.
To date we have €417 in the bank account.

This gallery is owned by the SE1199 trade union which represents over a million service and health workers (the majority being immigrants or descendants of immigrants) in the USA. Recently that union has pledged it's support to Barack Obama for the US presidential election.
The main purposes of the exhibition -through the medium of print and dvd photography with audio commentary- is to help raise consciousness and awareness in the public of the opposition to wars, the plight of the people in war torn countries, the real reasons behind wars, to show some of the collateral damage of wars and the situations soldiers find themselves in.
I am in contact with soldiers serving or who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan etc, who's photography will form part of the documentary. We also have some images from Palestine etc included.
Dennis Halliday the former UN Assistant Secretary-General and ex-UN Humanitarian Co-ordinator for Iraq (who resigned because of the lies from the Bush administration during 'the weapons of mass destruction' controversy), and/or former US Attorney General, (under the LBJ administration) Ramsay Clarke (who is now an anti war and anti Bush campaigner), will be giving of their time to open the exhibition.
We also hope to take this exhibition to other countries that have any involvement in any wars or the arms industry, including Ireland where it has already had two showings.
If you can help out in any way with sponsorship, names of potential sponsors or a donation, we would be very grateful. A detailed list of costs can be had on request.
Bank of Ireland, Talbot Street, Dublin 1. AC/NO: 90747246 sort code 90.07.11
Some of the 50-70 images under consideration can be seen through the links on the sites below, which includes some powerful and very graphic images (discretion advised) recently taken in Iraq by Zoriah Millar who, because of a simple decision, escaped injury or worse near a suicide bombing on the 26th June.
