PHIL BORGES

12/05/2011 7:00 pm
Seattle photographer Phil Borges has worked for over thirty years to document, and help endangered indigenous and tribal cultures. His photography has been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, and included in such beautiful, powerful books as Tibetan Portrait, Enduring Spirit, and Women Empowered. He is here tonight with his striking new book, Tibet: Culture on the Edge (Rizzoli). This rich, informed, and beautiful book includes much information on Tibet's rapid natural changes, as well as its continued cultural challenges under the Chinese government. "Phil Borges' images are some of the finest portraits I have ever seen, and like those of Edward C. Curtis, they are also precious, documenting a vanishing way of life. Look, care, and be reassured by the beauty of the human spirit." – Ann Curry.
