Norway in May was amazing, as usual. Great workshop, fantastic roadtrip to shoot industry in Sweden, and being in Oslo for the National Day on the 17th was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The exhibition of my landscape photographs at Fotografiens Hus Gallery in downtown Oslo was a success, and there’s talk of another in 2008.

I’m happy to report that my Exhibition and the Workshop Pål Otnes and I are presenting in Oslo are already receiving favorable attention from the photography press in Norway. Take a look at fotografi.no, the website for Norway’s best photo magazine.

“Seeing Is Believing,” a gallery exhibition of my black-and-white landscape photographs, opens on May 4th at Fotografiens Hus in downtown Oslo. There’s a reception party from 6-9pm if you’re in the neighborhood.

The prints that make up this exhibition feature images made in Norway (happily, I’ve been visiting Norway often since 2003 to teach and to photograph), as well as the US, Canada, Western Europe, and Japan. In addition to the exhibition Pål Otnes and I will be teaching a special Digital Workshop, and we may even take a road trip into Sweden to photograph abandoned industrial sites. In fact, it looks like I’ll be spending most of the month May in Norway - including May 17th, which is the Norwegian National Day; I hear it’s quite a party!

The Susan Spiritus Gallery, which represents my work on the West Coast, has a whole new website - with my work in the slide show here.

Camilla Longin’s London Gallery, The Art Movement, will be featuring my black-and-white landscape photographs at Photo London. Photo London is like New York’s AIPAD show - approximately 50 world-class photo galleries showcase collectible photographs which are for sale.

The dates are Wednesday 17 May - Sunday 21 May 2006 at the the Royal Academy of Arts’ Burlington Gardens. I will be at the exhibition Wednesday thru Saturday, and I would love to see you there (booth #15). Please come by, or ask your friends in London to stop by and introduce themselves.
