President
of Nepal Photographic Society, Sudarshan Karki along with the director
of the University of Wisconsin, Nepal Study Program, Pamela Ross,
inaugurated the "Elizabeth Lance photo exhibition" at
the Spiny Babbler art gallery on April 24 at Kupondol Height.
Elizabeth
Lance came to Nepal under the University of Wisconsin foreign country
study program seven months ago. She has been taking black and white
images and presents 41 images of people at the Spiny Babbler art
gallery until April 30, 1999. Most of the photos have been developed
by Lance herself. In his talk Sudarshan Karki said that many people
in the country do not yet take photography as a pure arts form and
that the Nepal Photographic Society is working to promote the art
medium. Pallav Ranjan, founder of the Spiny Babbler art and literature
organization, also spoke on the occasion and praised the work of
Ms. Lance and talked about the organization's upcoming efforts to
present the writers and photographers of Nepal through its publications
and art gallery. |
