Just got back from a superb event. Five photographers from °SOUTH gave a
floor talk on their show, WAR.

Ben Bohane pointed out the shame Australians should feel about the
secret war and blockade waged in Bougainville in the 90s, a direct
contravention of the UN arms embargo.

Popped into the opening of a pretty compelling double exhibition

The Nikon Walkley awards are an annual press award, and the photo
section is always seriously good viewing. I distinctly remember the
series of photos from the Lin family funeral. They were a family
murdered here in my suburb, in fact I used to buy a lot of my
photography magazines from their newsagency. The photographer was
working for the local newspaper. Normally I never open the paper, but
the shots so moving, I had to go through the whole article. The case
remains unsolved.
°SOUTH are a pretty legendary bunch of characters, including Tim Page,
David Dare Parker, and the amazing Sean Flynn. The show is hard going,
but very much worth the effort
Highly recommended.
