Rancher: Photographs of the American West, a collection of striking photographs by Carl Corey, will be on display at the Dahl Arts Center, in Rapid City, South Dakota, January 18 through February 22, 2008. The exhibit opens with a public reception for the artist and poetry reading by Red Owl, South Dakota area rancher, Robert Dennis, on January 18, 2008 5-7 pm. The photographs in the book are accompanied by Robert Dennis‘ poetry, and it has an introduction by respected writer, editor, poet, and ranchwoman Linda Hasselstrom.
I took this off the Cowboy Poetry .com website. Carl is wanting to take pictures of all the people in the book, plus any other ranchers and their families who will set for a minute. In return for getting your picture taken, Carl will give those photographed a nice portrait of themselves.
As an amateur photographer this is a fantastic idea. I will be looking forward to the finished product.
