EXPOSURE-VII Photo Agency
Workshop in Kosovo | Summer 2005
Eight Tufts students and two New York University students worked
under the guidance of Gary Knight, VII Photo Agency photographer,
and Mort Rosenblum, former chief correspondent for the Associated
Press, during this weeklong workshop in Kosovo. Students worked
together as photographer/writer teams, each pursuing a different
story. Knight and Rosenblum provided suggestions, instructions,
and feedback, guiding students as they examined critical current
issues in Kosovo. This workshop was the first in a series of
VII Workshops designed specifically for Tufts students involved
with EXPOSURE. In addition, Rebuilding Kosovo: Six Years Later
(forthcoming by de.MO) will be the first in a series of EXPOSURE
publications. The Kosovo Workshop was a joint collaboration between
the Institute for Global Leadership at Tufts University and by
The Christie Foundation, a charitable corporation established
by Fred Chicos.
