She first traveled to Budapest in the summer of 2005 for an international reporting seminar, returning in the spring of 2006 to cover Hungary's parliamentary election for her master's thesis. Her photographs, displayed on the north-facing wall, depict the story of rapid development in the Jewish Quarter of Budapest---the striking tug of war between past and present, in which the past often falls under the bulldozer. she undertook a photography project on the residual effects of the Cold War on Estonia's landscape and culture. Her photographs, which depict former military bases, closed cities, and abandoned government headquarters, capture the dynamic quality of the Cold War's physical manifestations. Most of the photographs, displayed on the south-facing wall, were taken in Narva, Sillamae, Paldiski, Klooga, Kiela, and Tallinn. The exhibition will be on display until April 29. -- ---------------------------------------------- Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies Harvard University 1730 Cambridge Street, 3rd Floor, Suite 301 Cambridge, MA 02138 Phone: 617.495.4037 Fax: 617.495.8319 http://www.daviscenter.fas.harvard.edu
