How nice to have so many friends. And most of them photographers apparently.Nice shot.
Yep, that’s the point … :-). The photographers. Thanks.
Her vision of what was to come appears to be completely accurate. The displayed artwork was just a bonus.
This is a UNHCR exhib: 60years60lives – very interesting photos. I liked it very much, even if the exhib was too small, the photos were to small .. and not much info to find on the Internet, too … :-(
Some of them are seen here: http://www.gordonwelters.com/2011/06/12/60-years-60-lives/
The show 60-years-60-lives has some portraits that remind me of the portrait work of my friend Bill Ganzel, who followed up on the people shown in the Farm Security Administration photographs (Dorothea Lang, Walker Evens, Rothstein, etc) of the 1930s and brought their lives up to date as of about 1980. He was just a featured speaker at a photo conference in Germany this spring.

What a nice group of followers your blog has.
Indeed!
Thank you very much for the link. This is very interesting, right now I am staring hypnotized at the Lonnie C. King portrait …. strange how some photos … don’t let you go.
I’ll give the website definitely some more time – when I can detach myself from this portrait …
Bill’s work on the 1960s survivors is really interesting. He had experience tracking down the photographic subjects of the FSA project, so tracking down key figures from the 1960s should not be as difficult. Yes, Lonnie C. King is quite a man, and Bill’s portrait is riveting. One can spend considerable time looking at his work. It is worth coming back to often.
