Opening of my exhibition on 15th November 2013. Syria: Facing the revolution: It features select photographs by UK born photographer Russell Chapman who travelled to the Middle East in the spring of 2013, documenting the revolution and its impact on human life in Syria and in the refugee camps in Jordan and Lebanon. For Chapman, “Photography does not mean to freeze what you just saw but more what you just felt. When we venture into our past, our memories are not like a continuous film that runs on in our head but more like images, in which we recognize forms that touch all of our senses.”
The exhibition is curated by Professor Johanna Fassl, faculty member at Franklin College Switzerland and director of Columbia University in Venice,
Hope the exibit is well recieved! Best of luck!
Thanks. One tries ones best 🙂
Looks like it will be a great exhibition. Wish I could make it. All the best.
Thanks Richard. I’m really looking forward to it. A pity you can’t come.
What I wouldn’t do for a plane ticket…
Knock ’em dead, Russ 🙂
A pity you can’t come Leah. There are going to be a lot of interesting people there.
I can imagine! But I have neither funds nor time off.
I am so excited for you, and so excited for the people who get to see these photos for the first time.
They are sure to be moved.
I hope my work has the right effect ;))))))))
I don’t see how it can’t
I hope it is a great success in all the ways you hope for Russell, we will try to get there! But if not all the very best for the exhibition. Nick and EJ
