FIVE LENSES ~ AT HENRY GREGG GALLERY

Thursday, 05 October 2006 00:08

Brooklyn, NY - Henry Gregg Gallery is proud to announce Five Lenses....Forgotten shades of grey, where five photographers bring their powerful and heart rending work from across the globe.  Their stories become our stories as we resonate with the pain, suffering and brutality and devastation in the world today.  And as a warrior child born in the slums of Rocinha, the largest “favela” in Brazil, is already a man, our hearts reach out to nature caressing an orphaned human and the eyes of hope looking up through a jagged concrete wall.  Through these images the inner and outer meet and the visible and invisible formulate a transforming story.  On exhibit until 28 October, 2006.
