Between Heaven and Earth is a grand adventure tracing Art Wolfe’s formative years and development as an artist. Following a life-changing experience in Asia, the presentation centers on the Himalaya region of India, China, Nepal and Bhutan – locations that triggered his imagination and wonder towards a path of blending his creativity and art with photography while documenting the wild world. In its entirety, including photographs and video, the lecture will run for over two hours.
