First Wednesday’s December Salon will be held on December 7th, 2011, with the salon running from 6:30pm to 8pm. Photographers Greg Mac Gregor and Siegfried Halus will be presenting work. Mac Gregor and Halus will be presenting work from their new monograph In Search of Dominquez & Escalante: Photographing the 1776 Spanish Expedition Through the Southwest, published by the Museum of New Mexico Press.
"More than two hundred years later Greg Mac Gregor and Siegfried Halus have created a remarkable visual record of the expedition. Using Escalante’s journal as their guide, the photographers followed the expeditionary route, circling through New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Arizona, and documenting the frontier as first witnessed by the Spanish explorers on horseback. The expedition passed what today are major national parks and landforms: Zion Canyon; Dinosaur Monument; and the Grand Canyon." -- from the publisher description
