… the palmetto portrait project …

What’s the Palmetto Portrait Project (PPP), anyway.. ? This wonderful idea sponsored by the Medical University of South Carolina, to portray its people in a collection of 240 photographs, by 24 South Carolina photographers. Six photographers each year for the past three years, and now, in the final year, the final six will complete the project. These portraits will be on display, permanently at MUSC and a duplicate set will be given to The Columbia Museum of Art for their collection.

The beauty of this project is that the only one criteria: portraits must be done in South Carolina, that’s it, no matter who or where….

This will be an on-going contribution to the blog from now until February 2009, with my progress ….

Thanks,

ja
