    Facing the Inferno, The Wildfire Photography of Kari Greer
    Sap In Their Veins, David Paul Bayles

      
    Each new day brings new reports of threats to precious national resources, and unprecedented wildfires around the globe. For 2022, the US is once again on track to surpass 10,000,000 acres burned.
    Moscow Contemporary has two exhibits that approach the subject from different perspectives.
    "Facing the Inferno" is the only touring exhibit to address the increasing menace of wildfires. The emotive power of the imagery in "Facing the Inferno" is balanced with factual information about wildfires. The exhibit gives great entré into one of the most immediate and hard to deny repercussions of global warming. Kari Greer is one of the few women photographers hired by the Interagency Fire Bureau to photograph from inside fire operations. The exhibit includes images from across the American West.
    "Sap In Their Veins" takes a nuanced look at forests and the families that work in them. With excerpts from oral histories as well as a series of large-format B&W images of trees as they fall, the exhibit seeks a middle ground between our need for lumber and the ancient forests that nurture our soul.
