More Charlotte Dumas

By Kitson

I just got a call from a friend who wants to celebrate the back-to-school season with a trip downtown to the Corcoran Gallery of Art to see the wonderful and moving photography exhibit called "Anima." (which I briefly blogged about on TheSweetFeed.com earlier this summer). There's an article in today's Washington Post about the exhibit by Dutch photographer Charlotte Dumas.


The folks over at the Corcoran's press office were kind enough to share some photos for a sneak preview... the horses in the photos pull funeral caissons at Arlington National Cemetery. Will report back after I see the exhibit in person... I can't help being preoccupied with the manure stains on Peter, but then again, these were not meant to be glamour shots.
