Ashes and Snow

Ashes and Snow
January 14 - May 14, 2006

If you like art, photography, film, literature, animals, travel, dance, music, and architecture; then I highly recommend that you see this exhibit of the work of Gregory Colbert on display at the temporary Nomadic Museum alongside the Santa Monica Pier.

Everyone has an idea that L.A. is not interested in culture, admitted the artist. He is said to have said that L.A. is one of the few places where there is a common ground in a diversity of cultures. "People are starving for culture and want to have things inspire us." He plans to continue to feed the appetite of this culture-starving world.

Gosh, if only I could have taken similar photographs during our wildlife safari in Kenya, Africa. Although, I highly doubt that I would have been able to make it out alive from that photo shoot to share such kind of inspired artistry.

“When I started Ashes and Snow in 1992,
I set out to explore the relationship between man and animals
from the inside out.”
—Gregory Colbert

The exhibit closes on Mother's Day, May 14th,
so hurry and catch it if you can, before it heads out to Tokyo!
