Salgado and Finkle

If you get a chance, check out two of my favorite concerned photographers, Sebastiao Salgado and Harvey Finkle. They have each produced a substantial body of work concerning a variety of social issues and their photos are absolutely breathtaking. In the near future, I hope to set up a meeting with Harvey Finkle to discuss his work with the Kensington Welfare Rights Union, a poor people's economic movement based out North Philly. We'll hopefully be able to visit his studio as well. If I'm able to actually set up this meeting and you're interested and in the Philadelphia area, just let me know.
