The
next opening of the Dakota Ridge Gallery will celebrate the
photographs of Pierrot
Men of Madagascar. In spite of the obstacles and challenges
of life in a politically and economically unstable country,
Men captures the poignant and moving moments in lives lived
much differently from our own. His ability to convey this sense
of distance and connection through composition, spontaneity,
and craft recalls the work and style of Cartier-Bresson.
In Torn from the Continent Pierrot Men examines the moods, textures,
instants and moments of a people, the Malagasy of Madagascar,
whose lives are animated by moments of joy, trepidation and
the search for stability and comfort, perhaps even a place in
a larger picture that we in the Western world rarely think about.
Born of a Chinese father and Malagasy mother, Men, whose name
means light in Chinese, provides an unscripted and impassioned
view of life in another world to which we are bound by our common
humanity.
