On
February 1, Eric Douglas
will be returning to Russia to revisit a project he worked on as a
freelance journalist, photographing the people of Russia. Eric spent
about 6 months in Russia from 1993 to 1995 and published a number of
articles and images, as well as a photographic exhibit of the work.
You can see some of those images on his website at
http://www.booksbyeric.com/russia.htm and on this
web site at
http://www.rwvf.net/Culture/BW%20PhotosFrm.htm. He
has used the images on his website to help him track down some of the
people he met 15 years ago. He has also just posted a blog, and some
of the same images, on my MySpace site at:
http://www.myspace.com/booksbyeric.
Assuming Eric can get internet
access, he plans to regularly update his MySpace blog with notes from
the road and will also send those notes out as a regular email. If you
don't have access to MySpace, but want to receive his notes, send him
an email at
eric@booksbyeric.com and he will add you to the mailing list.
