Reception for “Clyde Butcher’s Cuba: The Natural Beauty”

Part of Collier County’s ¡Arte Viva! celebration, this exhibition will feature twenty–six photographic works by Clyde Butcher, a world-renowned photographer based in Ochopee, FL. The reception will begin in the Rose History Auditorium with a talk by Clyde Butcher. After, we will view the exhibit in the Sandlin Gallery of the Museum. Light refreshments and food will be provided.

Commissioned by the United Nations to create a portfolio of the mountainous lands of Cuba, Clyde Butcher set out on three week-long expeditions into unfamiliar lands. He explored the island country’s varied geographic regions, from the Sierra Maestra Mountains in Cuba’s eastern Granma province, to the southern coast between Manzananilo and Santiago de Cuba.
