Speaker Series
Bill Jeffries
Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange and the Sacrifices Made in 1942
Thursday, January 28, 7pm
The focus of the talk will be on the qualitative aspect of the photographic record in Canada and the United States. Nineteenth-century photographs from the U.S. are usually of much higher quality, especially when landscape is the subject. This dichotomy carried over into the documentation of the internment in 1942. Whether this image-quality split mirrors the differences in the treatment of internees in the U.S. and Canada in the 1942 to 1945 period is to be discussed.
