PRC 2012 Benefit Auction: Featuring Lou Jones

Saturday, September 15, 2012


One of my highly-stylized photographs from the long standing series “distressed” is being featured in the Photographic Resource Center’s 2012 Benefit Live Auction on October 13, 2012.


For over 20 years, the PRC has hosted an auction to raise money so it can continue to support fine art and creative photography in New England. This event is an exciting opportunity for the photography, art, collecting, and gallery communities to celebrate this important Boston-based cultural institution.   
 

Other live auction works include photographs by Robert Capa, Bradford Washburn, Karin Rosenthal, Dominic Chavez, Henry Horenstein, Arno Minkkinen, and Marie Cosindas. The silent auction features 172 artists, including Ed Kashi and Elsa Dorfman.
