Photo event in Princeton from Charlotte Whalen

dear friends,


I'm going to be in the following show that opens soon: October 24th in

Princeton. It will be a beautiful and very special show - apart from

work by many extraordinary photographers who studied with Emmet, it

will have work of his that has never been seen/published. Not to be

missed! Up until February, so there's plenty of time to visit - but it

would be lovely to see any of you who can make it to the lecture and

opening.

Emmet Gowin: A Collective Portrait

October 24, 2009-February 21, 2010

Princeton University Art Museum


Opening: Saturday, October 24, 2009

Lecture by Emmet Gowin, 6:00 pm, McCosh 10, Princeton University

Reception at the museum, 7:00-8:30


-------------------------------------------------


Emmet Gowin: A Collective Portrait celebrates Princeton’s legendary

teacher of photography, who retires in 2009. The exhibition features

work by Gowin, his mentors, and twenty students from the past

thirty-five years. While pursuing careers as diverse as anthropology,

graphic design, activism, and fine art, Gowin’s students trace their

inspiration to his depthless faith in photography as a medium, a

discipline, and a way of life. Join Emmet Gowin as he discusses his

extraordinary career in photography and teaching at Princeton

University. A reception will follow at 7:00 p.m. in the Art Museum.
