Paris where there will be shown an exhibit of Ben Fernandez's work on protest (from a book by the same name). There will be a gallery talk on Feb. 26 at 5:00pm by Ben. The code-word to acknowledge to Ben that you saw this invitation is "Vladimir"...if you can make it and would like to see an American photographer loose it completely, this is your chance. Ben is formerly chairman of the Photography department at the New School in New York City. He gained national attention with his work on protest in the 60's and 70's, he is now working on a project entitled "The Power of the Image as a Political Tool". All the images were made with Leica cameras. For those reading this in the Paris area, this is a chance to see VERY powerful work. Enjoy. MH
