Description
FREE Opening Reception on June 19, 6 to 8 pm
(West Palm Beach, FL – March 6, 2019) Fatima NeJame, president and chief executive officer of the world renowned Palm Beach Photographic Centre (PBPC), today announced its next major exhibition:
SPACE ODYSSEY 2019
Astronaut Scott Kelly’s Epic Visual Voyages
June 20 to August 3, 2019
One's perspective shifts when one lives for an entire year—as Commander Scott Kelly, and no other American astronaut in history, has—in the isolating, grueling, and utterly unforgiving vacuum of space. Kelly's photos prove that this perspective—from 250 miles above earth—while hard-won, is also almost unspeakably beautiful.
“While breaking records for being in outer space, NASA Astronaut Scott Joseph Kelly, talked to President Obama about what he was seeing and pictures he was taking, the President encouraged him to share his pictures with the world via Twitter and Instagram. Space traveler extraordinary Kelly did,” says NeJame. “This exhibition celebrates the best of his pictures and his voyages as well as a bonus look at best pictures of NASA’s amazing history. SPACE SELFIES. Curated by Space lover, from ZUMA Press archives, by their renowned award winning picture editor Scott McKiernan and with generous sponsorship from ZUMA Press.”
