Show Notes:
L.A. artist Sandow Birk uses a centuries-old technique to transform images from the Iraq war into prints reminiscent of Goya and Callot. Birk's series The Depravities of War references Jacques Callot's 1633 Miseries of War which documents a war between Protestants and Catholics. Laura Lamb reviews the exhibition currently showing in Vancouver.
