portraits [in]justice: facing social justice issues in post-war Liberia

Opening Reception for portraits [in]justice is Saturday, March 7 from 6 to 8pm at Laramie’s KEAG Gallery. The exhibit features the photography of Jeminie Shell, who during the summer of 2008, was immersed in the politics, culture, and chaos of post-war Liberia. She spent nine weeks in the capital city and traveled into the country’s rural areas as an intern with DUCOR Waste Management, an organization that works to improve the poor environmental health conditions contributing to Liberia's horrible health and mortality statistics.
Jeminie’s portraits reveal the beauty and resilience of the poorest populations of Liberia as they face day-to-day social and environmental injustices and work to slowly improve their lives in post-war Liberia.
A portion of the proceeds from this exhibit will be donated to water and sanitation projects in Liberia.
The exhibit will be open through March 31st.

Byron Seeley's Work coming to KEAG

The work of Byron Seeley will soon be available at KEAG Gallery. The swirls of color in his Red Canyon Ware collection intrigues collectors and has been noted by the Los Angeles Times as "one of the craftiest veins of ceramic art."
We look forward to having his work.
