D-Day Remembered Photo exhibit promo image

 

French photographer Fabrice Bourge, a native of Normandy, has witnessed over 25 years of D-Day commemorations beginning with the 50th anniversary in 1994. While the events have grown larger, yet fewer and fewer veterans who landed that fateful day attend, Bourge has concentrated his eye and his lens on the fringes of these events. Captured on black and white film, and individually printed on silver gelatin paper, more than 40 photographs comprise this exhibit. His carefully and reverently selected photographs share the stories of the grateful compassion that contemporary Normans continue to feel for the allied veterans who began the liberation of Europe on these beaches 80 years ago.
