Visions of Younger Days, from the series Garip: The Turkish Sheepdog, 2010


A documentary photographer and filmmaker since late 1960s, Laurence Salzmann has exhibited his work widely in Europe, Israel, Turkey and in the United States. Salzmann is a Pew Fellow, and recipient of numerous grants for his works.
Salzmann's work Echele Ganas will be a keystone exhibit for De Peublo A Pueblo, a city-wide Philadelphia Mexican Cultural Festival from April 27-June 16.

Please join us for this informative talk, which will touch on Salzmann's editorial priorities for his work with photographs and films. Together we will inquire about the relationships he creates between his work and the human subjects that he photographs. Salzmann will illustrate the discussion with excerpts from his works in Romania and Cuba, including Last Jews of Radauti (1974) and Imagining Cutumba (2004.)
