    Recent PEW Fellowship winner Daniel Heyman talks about his work with Iraqi civilians victimized war, highlighting the printed and painted portraits of victims of random violence and torture in American prisons. His most recent and metaphorical series of etchings printed on wood constructions concerns the impossibility of bearing witness when the hard facts of a war are kept out of public view, and examples of his work will be on view as part of the C. R. Ettinger Studio Selections from 2000 to 2010 exhibition this winter at PAFA.
