Atelier Contakos: Peter Bogardus - Places of Reverence, Images of Africa
Comment by AB: Peter Bogardus visits and documents remote spiritual locations in Africa where peace prevails above all and the travails of the world do not exist. He prints his large-format film camera images as stand-alone photogravures and in limited edition books. Good show.
