Pulitzer-Prize
photography exhibit extended
“The
Pulitzer Prize Photographs: Capture the Moment,” a traveling exhibit
hosted by North Carolina State University Libraries at the D.H. Hill Library,
has extended its exhibition through Sunday, Dec. 28.
The exhibit features more than 120 prize-winning images dating from 1942
through 2003 and is free and open to the public.
Many photos in the exhibit document historic moments that are instantly recognizable, especially war-related photos from around the world.
Included are Joe Rosenthal’s World War II photograph of the raising of the flag over Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima in 1945 and many haunting images from the Vietnam War. Also featured are photographs by N.C. native and Pulitzer-winner John H. White.
The exhibit was originally slated to close Saturday, Dec. 13.
The D.H. Hill Library is located at 2205 Hillsborough Street, across from the Wachovia Bank Building, in Raleigh, N.C. The NCSU Libraries offer leading-edge resources and services from the central library, the D.H. Hill Library, and four branch libraries.
