The Imperial War Museum has opened two new contemporary war photography exhibitions which focus on the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

2013 is the tenth anniversary of the start of the Second Iraq War and IWM Contemporary presents an exhibition of photography examining the impact of war on the Iraqi people as well as the troops who served there.

The exhibition features work from two pioneering photographers, Mike Moore and Lee Craker, and runs until January 5, 2014.

Donovan Wylie explores the effects of modern-day military surveillance in his 'Vision as Power' exhibition. He presents a new perspective on how we view conflict and architecture. This exhibition runs until April 21, 2014.
