Exhibition
IMAGES TO STOP TUBERCULOSIS is a powerful and innovative new photo exhibition intended to raise worldwide awareness of the disease, which kills nearly 5 000 people every day. The exhibition opened in Rio de Janeiro on 23 March 2009 and will go on to tour major cities across the globe.
An exciting line-up of photographers-including international celebrities such as Pep Bonet and Stanley Greene as well as emerging young talent from developing countries including Bangladesh and India-has captured both suffering and hope among those affected by tuberculosis in locales as diverse as Afghanistan, Cambodia, Russia and the United States.
The images, both colour and black-and-white, will be exhibited through a mix of styles and formats-including projections and digital displays-and complemented by valuable information about the disease, particularly its scale, prevention and treatment.
The exhibition, curated by Christian Caujolle in collaboration with an international Advisory Board, was inspired by the significant global interest in the Images to Stop Tuberculosis Photo Award and will feature a photo reportage by 2008 award winner Jean Chung of the Republic of Korea.
