For more than twenty-five years, photojournalist Steve McCurry has covered areas of international and civil conflict. This exhibition concentrates on his extensive work from Asia, including images from India, Cambodia, Afghanistan, and Tibet. Although clearly tied to the places and people of Asia, McCurry’s haunting photographs take us beyond their vivid locales, providing a glimpse of what he calls the “broader landscape” of the human condition.

Face of Asia: Steve McCurry Photographs was organized by the George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film with support from the Eastman Kodak Company and Nikon, Inc.
