Green Mountain Academy for Lifelong Learning (GMALL) welcomes acclaimed photographer Kevin Bubriski to talk about the Uyghurs he photographed more than 25 years ago, giving giving us a glimpse into a lost world, portraying the life and culture of China’s Uyghur community in their historic capital city of Kashgar before the government’s severe crackdown. This presentation is based on his book which features over 120 photographs taken by Bubriski in 1998 during time he spent in Kashgar, situated on the ancient Silk Road trade route in China’s northwestern Xinjiang region. Fellow photographer and journalist Robert Gerhardt said Bubriski’s images capture the “cultural, economic, familial, religious, and spiritual traditions” of the Uyghurs. He added, “The vibrancy, beauty, and grit of Kashgar and its people that Bubriski witnessed and photographed more than 25 years ago has irrevocably changed, making his photographs even more significant.” Registration is $22 per person.
