Opening | Framing the War

Visit the opening program of the new exhibition Framing the War.

The latest temporary exhibition of Sound and Vision will be opened on Thursday the 14th of July: Framing the War. The opening program includes an introduction, panel discussion, auction, mini-documentaries and, of course, access to the new exhibition. Register for free to attend the opening.

Framing the War portrays the first hundred days of the war through the lens of international news photographers and through the pen of international cartoonists. The documentary photography and satirical cartoons combined to paint a unique picture of the conflict. They invite you as a visitor to take a critical look at coverage of the war: what do I know and what do I see, and how important and how influential are the makers of the images? The opening broadens and deepens these questions.
