Collateral Damage: The Human Face of War is on view now at Stephen Daiter Gallery through October 27.  The group exhibition features powerful imagery that examines significant issues and effects of war including post-traumatic stress, Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, gender issues, the impact of war on an individual and on a family, and much more.  The subject matter of the exhibition is centered around conflicts of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, but the issues examined strike a much deeper chord, recounting past wars and more universal themes.
