Towell's views of the 9/11 tragedy lead as well as more recent imagery of an embattled Afghanistan are also featured. Danger and Aftermath is in fact the first public exhibition of the Afghanistan series.

Large-scale prints and panoramas create an almost immersive experience, with the content - victims of war, ruins, detainees and insurgents - having even greater impact. Towell studied art at York University in Toronto. Volunteer work in Calcutta led him to work as an independent photographer and writer. In the 1980s, while in Nicaragua with a human rights delegation, he committed himself to photographing issues of unrest, identity and landlessness.
