Hi Dan,
I was just reading about this exhibition in the 6/96 issue of Leica
Fotografie International and was impressed with the work I saw there. I
have always had a soft spot for China and always enjoyed my visits there. I
will definately put it on my list for things to do in Singapore.
Speaking of Singapore - flights and hotel are confirmed and my
shopping list is getting longer by the day.
BTW I just recieved 4 issues of Leica Fotografie International and
read them over and over again. I had ordered them from Williams of Hove,
who sent them to a friend in London, who brought them into Nepal for me.
Life is not easy here at times.
Thanks for the ino.
