MAIN SPACE

ICON & ARCHIVE: PHOTOGRAPHY & THE WOLRD WARS

Icon and Archive presents an engaging survey of the Australian War Memorial's extensive and highly significant photographic collection, drawing on material created during the two World Wars. The exhibition features many "iconic" photographs that have become part of the Australian psyche. The exhibition also considers the photographic archive of which these "icons" are apart, drawing attention to many superb photographs that have, for one reason or another, not become so "iconic".
