Explore the unique landscapes and people of the southwestern US through the mind and art of Dick Spas. Black and white photography in the tradition of Ansel Adams, this collection of images recalls people, characters and places encountered over 50+ years of investigating the currents and undercurrents of life in the Southwest. These images have been brought to life by painstaking and loving attention to the developer’s creative alchemy in the chemical baths, with images produced by classic single exposure cameras. Each image is literally unique, a glorious one-time merging of chemistry with the inspiration of the photographer. Dick’s unique humor and storytelling style, on display in the stories and captions that grace these images, imbues this record of The Southwest: The Land and Its People with a sense of life at its best.
