The Witnesses...

The witnesses, all of them, officials or agents of the Nixon Administration, left a stunning impression of something missing--some ordinary, familiar component of the human makeup, taken for granted when present but sinister by its absence. Collectively the cohorts of Mr. Nixon were deficient. They were without a sense of wrong. They took the stand one after another to describe or defend their conduct. Whether the proposed operations were illegal, immoral, unethical, criminal, or dirty trick; few hesitated, only one ever said NO.

The Committee...

In the absence of a legal forum where Nixon could be examined and his testimony weighed against that of other witnesses, the public depended upon the televised hearings of the Senate Watergate Committee to lay out as many of the facts as it could discover. The Senate created the Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities under the chairmanship of Senator Sam J. Ervin Jr. of North Carolina on Feb. 7, 1973. No investigation was ever more momentous in its implications than the investigation into the Watergate scandals that the Senate authorized. Never before had a Senate Committee been given a mandate to determine for the public's satisfaction the lawfulness and moral legitimacy of the means used by an incumbent president to retain power and to exercise that power. The hearings began three months later on May 17.

SURRENDERING THE WHITE HOUSE: Documenting Watergate was curated by The University of Texas-Pan American, Edinburg, Texas and ArtVision Exhibitions, LLC, Boca Raton, Florida. Photographs are courtesy of Kitty Kelley and The Estate of Stanley Tretick. To access additional photographs from the archives of Stanley Tretick, go to www.StanleyTretick.com

SURRENDERING THE WHITE HOUSE: Documenting Watergate depicts the faces, the photographs, the charts, exhibits, and journalists' notes which reveal the aspects of the tragedy that has been uncovered beneath the glossy surface of American life. Skulduggery and dirty tricks, even tax evasion and misuse of public funds--and the central issue of the crisis--the abuse of Executive power.

The exhibition examines the initial break-in, the Senate hearings, Nixon's Impeachment, behind-the-scenes filming of All the President's Men, and finally the surfacing 30 years later of the man known only as "Deep Throat."
