Gillian Laub: Testimony
"Her images of residents of Israel and the West Bank depict the horrors of war, the bravery and determination of survivors and the familial bonds common to humanity, even when the 'families' are comprised of fellow soldiers." -- N. Elizabeth Schlatter --Focus: Fine Art Photography Magazine"This deeply moving book gives the reader a glimpse into the hugely complex issues surrounding the area and why they show no sign of abating." --HotShoe International"With her medium-format camera, Laub captures a provocative mixture of broken bodies, survival and hope among Israelis, Palestinians, Israeli Arabs and displaced Lebanese families. Their attitudes run counter to widespread impressions of the region's inhabitants." -- Adam Goldman --The Associated Press"Her crisp colour images engage with a directness that is personal to the reader and immediately moving on both an emotional and intellectual level. It's a book that should be distributed freely to every home in the region, the cost sequestered from the weapons budget of all the political factions involved." -- Mike Von Joel --PhotoIcon"The book is an inspiring glimpse into, and reassuring document of, the humanity we often fail to acknowledge regarding this unresolved conflict." -- Laura Nobel  --London Independent Photography
