In publishing lingo, a "double truck" is a full two-page spread and the best kind of display of a published image that a photographer could ask for. And so there's DOUBLEtruck magazine, a photojournalist's and photo appreciator's dream come true. Publishing "pictures that need to be seen" on a quarterly basis since 2004, DOUBLEtruck was launched by photo agency ZUMA Press' Scott McKiernan after the Iraq War began spurring an increased publication of large two-page conflict photos. McKiernan has now curated Seeing Double, a traveling exhibit of some of DOUBLEtruck's best images to date.

SF Arts Commission says…

Seeing Double offers a chance to view a selection of over 60 of the best photographs featured in the first five years of the award-winning quarterly magazine DOUBLEtruck. The exhibition is a virtual time capsule of some of the most memorable moments in recent history captured by world-renowned photojournalists.
