A World above the World: Daryl Hawk Photography Presentation & Lecture
Thursday, Jan. 9, 7 – 8:30 p.m. International documentary photographer Daryl Hawk will give a special photography presentation and lecture based on his most recent expedition to the remote Northwest Frontier of Argentina this past April. Hawk embarked on a 3,000 mile journey across the Altiplano Plateau and over the spectacular 18,000 foot plus Andean mountain range where Argentina, Bolivia and Chile meet. The native people survive in one of the most remote, high altitude, bewitching landscapes on earth. Known as Collas, these inhabitants of the region maintain ancient traditions giving thanks to Mother Earth. Mr. Hawk will share his discoveries, stories, and important lessons from the nonstop adventures he experienced everyday on this enlightening journey. He will also discuss his style, philosophy, and various techniques he uses when photographing subject matter. Hawk is also a travel writer and lecturer whose articles and photographs often appear in magazines worldwide. He has been featured several times on NBC's Today Show and Fox 5 television. He is a member of the Explorers Club, the Royal Geographical Society and the Professional Photographers Association.  See the library’s registration link for more information about the speaker.
