Especially after the First World War, when wartime censorship lifted and the propaganda machines withered, photography was hugely influential, and it has remained so. There are, however, issues with photography, which need to be borne in mind. It can be physically manipulated, cropped, and faked and its meaning can be controlled by its context, presentation, use, and reception. A photograph of Hitler, for example, can be understood as a portrayal of a hero or of a villain, depending on the person viewing it and the circumstances and time period in which it is viewed.
Nonetheless, our visual view of war has emerged in conjunction with photographic images that are generally accepted a being truthful records, ranging from napalmed victims of the Vietnam War to bloodied survivors of 9/11. In Canada, as we saw in the art of Gertrude Kearns and Allan Harding MacKay, photography shaped the art inspired by the difficult mission to Somalia in 1993. Protest groups also rely on photography to justify their objections to war, while appreciating the view on war that the medium provides. ‘Thank God that’s not happening to us,’ we shudder. Perhaps one of the most compelling recent links between war, photography, and spectacle were the shocking pictures from Abu Ghraib showing Iraqi prisoners in US-run prisons – printed straight off the Internet and exhibited at the International Center of Photography in New York in October and November 2004.
