Dear Ms Sharon Koomler,

I have received a message from a friend who works at the AAM concerning your 
exhibition schedualing for late April/early May 2001. He suggested that I 
contact you concerning an exhibition which I am represeting and which is 
currently available at the time period you are requesting.

The exhibition is entitled "Beyond the Fall" and is a ten-year photographic 
document of the transition of the former Soviet bloc beginning with the fall 
of the Berlin wall in November 1989 and follows through until the NATO 
occupation of Kosovo in June of 1999. The photographs and exhibition have been
created by a single American photographer.

The images are black and white images of individuals struggling through the 
ten-years of transformation. Images of new rich Russians and the bandit 
culture are placed against the economic demise of the former Soviet industrial
landscapes. The unearthing of ancient ethic wars in Grozny, Kosovo, and Bosnia
are place along side images of the successes and failures the new NATO 
countries of Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary. 

"Beyond the Fall" is a co-edition book and a series of four traveling 
exhibitions, one in the United States, one in Western and Eastern Europe,  
another in Russia and finally the fourth in the British Common wealth.

The exhibitions has already shown in:

Newseum                         Washington DC
Newseum                         New York                        
La Provincia (State museum)     Milan
Postfrumpt                      Mitte-East Berlin
Newseum                         New York
Menage                          Moscow
Royal Festival Hall             London
Ethnography Museum              Budapest


A CD Rom of 500 images for LCD projection also accompanies the exhibition and 
can be displayed on a monitor or LCD projector were equipment is available.

The exhibition requirements and schedules as well as a reviews, images of past
exhibitions, and comments can be found at:

Please note that I am proposing "Exhibition #3".

Please let me know if you have an interest in this exhibition as soon as 
possible and a catologe of the exhibition can be sent to you for further 
consideration.


Best Regards,
