Richard Renaldi exhibit at the Nicolaysen

Western Lives by Richard Renaldi runs through December 30, 2007. Curator of the Nic, Lisa Hatchadoorian, writes, "The beautiful, insightful, and poignant photographic portraits by Richard Renaldi convey a universe in a single moment. They are deeply empathetic to our shared human condition, as well as documenting lives lived in certain places: the expansive and mythological West, the Great Plains region, Bus Travelers, and the Navajo Nation in Arizona. Renaldi's photographs stop us in our tracks as they force us to see beyond the outwardly mundane scrim of yet another anonymous persona to something more poignant, strong, fierce, unique and human underneath."
