"In the prints of The Disasters Goya compliled a collection of the horrors of the Spanish Peninsular War again Napoleon's troops (1808-14). But his condemnation is impartial, alternately critical of the cruelty on both sides, and this is why his etchings have become a pacifist discourse that is timeless in its scope. These images are the artist's first banging on the table in protest, and they speak directly to our consciences. The way Goya represented war is far removed from any idea of heroism and has few precedents in the history of art. His vehemence is certainly unique, however, Goya placed his genius in the service of a cause which had no impact on the society of his time. His opinions, full of intelligent doubts and mixed feelings, remained etched on those prints like a condemnation of war. The object of this exhibition is to project Goya's condemnation forward to our time. And his indignation has been best captured by certain war photographers. Through their dangerous work many of them have constructed a discourse which echoes Goya's view as applied to our own shameful conflicts.' ... p. 17
