Quick Update

Yesterday I went to a free photography exhibit at the Centro José Guerrero de Granada, organized by FUNDACIÓN MAPFRE, the Center for Creative Photography (University of Arizona), the Diputación de Granada and the Centro José Guerrero. The featured pictures were those of John Gutmann, a German man who spent time in Europe and the United States taking some pretty incredible shots. I saw many different types of photos; photos from Nazi Germany, from WWII, from everyday lives of people in the United States...it's so interesting to learn about these things in a history class, but seeing the photos made them so much more real. I wonder if John Gutmann knew what a record of the world he would leave when he took all these shots. Please visit the virtual exhibit here.
