Veteran's Day Photography Exhibit November 1, 2008

The opening reception for the Biser Collection is Saturday Nov. 1st from 5pm – 9pm and runs through Nov. 15th.

Biser compliments his photos with his selection of poems, military creeds, etc. The result is a personal collection that is truly powerful and touching. We are honoring Veteran's Day with this presentation.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT We who made it out of The Nam have an obligation to tell the story the best way we can for those that didn't make it. One out of every forty eight soldiers didn't make it out alive. One in every eight was some sort of casualty. The odds were not good, but we went, 2.8 million. We just had to make it one year and what a year it was. I bought my first 35mm when I was in Vietnam. I think I took better care of my Minolta than my M- 16. I still have the camera but it has since been retired, in my display case. The photos that I took there are the ones that are priceless for me. I would like to thank Matt Cook for challenging and tasking me to put this showing together. This way I can fulfill my obligation the best way I can, with my photos.
