Internationally acclaimed photographer Suzanne Opton will be giving a lecture discussing her portraiture work with veterans.

"The In/Visibility of America's 21st Century Wars" is a series of lectures concerning the paradox of a highly visualized contemporary American experience of war that is, on the one hand, ubiquitous and utterly present in public, popular culture; and on the other hand, invisible or absent, with no tangible sense that "America" is at war.
This series is part of Indiana University's Themester "Making War, Making Peace" and will continue bringing speakers throughout the year to address the paradox of "In/Visibility."
