About The Artwork
Montezuma Castle / United World College, Montezuma , New Mexico. The Armand Hammer United World College of the American West (or UWC-USA) is a United World College founded in 1982 by industrialist and philanthropist Armand Hammer. It is a two-year, independent, coeducational boarding school with about 200 students representing 80-90 countries at any time. The vast majority of these students receive full scholarships, being selected by the 124 National Committees that represent the United World Colleges around the globe. The school's mission is to teach international understanding by bringing together young men and women of diverse ethnic and social backgrounds, in an environment in which they must work together for success. In addition to offering the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program, the school has a strong program in the arts, a significant service program, and a wilderness curriculum. Typically, students are between 16 and 19 years old. Graduates are typically accepted at the most competitive colleges and universities around the world. In late 2007, the Wall Street Journal identified United World College - USA as the world's top 20 school for its success in preparing students to enter top American universities.

In his book "˜The portrait of an artist as a young man' James Joyce writes "__And to distinguish between the beautiful and the sublime, to distinguish between moral beauty and material beauty. And to inquire what kind of beauty is proper to each of the various arts. These are some interesting points we might take up." I've always believed the beauty proper to photography is not sublime creation, as in all the other arts, but rather a benevolent gift. When the fortune of a beautiful scene is recorded into my camera, in that inconsequential instant, relative to all of time, I am creating nothing. I am given something... like the best Christmas present ever or the love of a best friend. In that respect, photography is more a moral beauty art, as opposed to a material beauty art. The first time I became aware of this was in a small art studio in Paris France, where I discovered a black and white photograph of a young woman. What interested me most was the ambiguity of the subject's expression. She appeared pleasant and pleased. But there was a tear about to fall from her right eye. The image gave me goose bumps and soon after I bought my first camera. 40 years later, I was given the "˜gifts of light' I am displaying on Saachi.
