Coalescence:
Photography By Barbara Sparks

Dec. 17, 2011 – Feb. 19, 2012

For Colorado Springs photographer Barbara Sparks, the camera has become an essential part of her experiences traveling throughout the world. This exhibition of Sparks’s photographs from Nepal, Turkey, Italy, Guatemala, New Mexico, and Colorado are a luminous glimpse into the landscapes and cultures of these regions. Sparks studied photography with Myron Wood, Bernard Plossu, Marie Cosindas, Howard Bond, and Chuck Henningsen. Sparks has taken photographs for various books on the Colorado Rocky Mountains, like Spanish Peaks: Land and Legends, Colorado’s Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and Aspen: Blazon of the High Country.
