Gerry Zeck

Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA in December,1939. I have enjoyed careers in Cartography and in Photography. Now I am semi-retired and devoting more time and energy to art photography and digital drawing.

The search for Anima characterizes much of my art work during the past 30 years. Photography, for me, is a Jungian inspired ritual that delivers self knowledge.
