LIFE: A Photographic Journey Through Time
Frans Lanting and Christine Eckstrom with Richard Stolley
Monday, July 14, 2008 | 8:00 – 9:30pm | Kresge Auditorium | Free and Open to All
The Aurora Forum joins with Stanford Publishing Courses to present
photographer Frans Lanting and his LIFE Project, a lyrical
interpretation of the story of life on Earth that has been produced as
a multimedia show for symphony orchestra with music by Philip Glass.
For this evening’s photographic presentation, Lanting will be joined by
his wife and partner, Christine Eckstrom, an editor, videographer, and
former staff writer at National Geographic. For two decades, Frans and
Chris have collaborated on fieldwork and publishing projects that have
increased awareness of endangered ecological treasures.
