Regions of Photography and War (1989)

In the language of human (or time) geography, the life path of the war photographer marks a tense existence between inclusion and separation. Under­stood spatially, the activity of the photographer is located inside or outside demarcated zones which establish for the photographer and the work a posi­tion and a role. The photograph, and what we come to know of it, is the product of this activity and signals to us the conditions of its source moment.
