PHILIP JONES GRIFFITHS
VIET NAM TRILOGY TALK
Thursday 24th January 2008
13 Norfolk Place, London
7.30pm
SOLD OUT
Philip Jones Griffiths will talk at the Frontline club in London on his legendary work covering the conflict in Viet Nam, and his work continuing to photograph the country for over twenty five years after the war had ended.
Agent Orange – Collateral Damage in Viet Nam (Trolley, 2003) depicts the horror of birth deformities in Viet Nam that continue to this day, as an effect of the deadly poison dioxon dropped within ‘agent orange’ defoliant sprays during the conflict.
Viet Nam at Peace (Trolley, 2005) shows Viet Nam over two decades since the day Americans left the country. With a foreword by John Pilger, who like Griffiths arrived in Viet Nam in 1966, he writes ‘Griffiths is the one who showed us Viet Nam as a country, not as a war.’
