This dispatch comes from Russ Schnitzer:
I am writing to let you know that I’ll be opening up an exhibit of photographic prints at Lander’s Folklore Coffee House on June 21. There will be an evening reception from 7-9 p.m. Displayed work will be primarily themed on Wyoming’s outdoors, wildlife and fly fishing. All displayed prints are limited-edition giclee on fine art paper; much of the framing has been done by Fremont Frameworks. All prints are available for sale.
Following is a brief bio/statement:
Russell Schnitzer is a award-winning photographer ranging throughout the West. Recent gallery shows have been in Denver and Kansas City, with awards received for both color and black-and-white images. Publication credits include ESPNOutdoors.com, TU.org, TROUT Magazine, Patagonia catalogs, Fly Fish America, Fly Rod & Reel, NewWest.net, and several conservation titles.
Schnitzer grew up in rural northern Minnesota, and has lived in Idaho, Montana, Michigan, Vermont, Wisconsin, Washington, D.C., and Colorado. He now resides south of Lander. My primary photographic ambition is to communicate the power, passion and subtlety of natural landscapes, and life within those landscapes — flowers, fish, wildlife and people. My images represent my values, and my personal relationship with the natural world. I enjoy sharing that connection with others, who, through their unique perspectives, deepen the value of an image’s time and place. I shoot primarily with full-frame digital equipment, and do not digitally manipulate images. Having learned photography using film, I subscribe to the photographic principle that “one exposure equals one image.”

The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
