Photos of wounded bring war home

The Baltimore Sun

What makes a photograph art rather than just a picture of something that happened?

Nina Berman's powerful portraits of wounded young soldiers who have returned from Iraq show wasted bodies, terrifying disfigurements and gruesome scars - images that go beyond the ordinary pictures beamed back from Baghdad.

Moving Walls 10: Purple Hearts runs through Jan. 19 in the Commons Mezzanine Gallery at University of Maryland, Baltimore County, 1000 Hilltop Circle in Catonsville. Call 410-455-5619.
