PDNB Gallery Book Signing Event With Al Satterwhite 12/20/2008

I recently received this announcement. I’ve had the honor of meeting Al Satterwhite on multiple occasions over the years. He is a great photographer who has had a career in both film and still imagery.

Location: Photographs Do Not Bend Gallery
Date: Saturday, December 20, 2008
Time: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM

A limited number of special boxed sets are available which will include two 11″ x 14″ archival pigment prints, one each of Ali and Schwarzenegger, selected by the author.

Below is an overview of the book, as well as quote from Roy Firestone:

This book features photographs of Muhammad Ali and Arnold Schwarzenegger from the 1970’s. Both iconic figures were at the height of their physical prowess during this time. Satterwhite’s black and white photographs are remarkably vivid portraits of these heroes, exploring their brawn and willpower.

Arnold Schwarzenegger does not seem to be comparable to Muhammad Ali on the surface. But look closer. Both Ali and Schwarzenegger came from nowhere to win titles. Both men were great physical specimens, but later became known for their wit, humanity and crowd-pleasing nature, not merely for their brawn. And, of course, both men became known as two of the greatest icons of their time. They did it largely because they were both able to overcome stereotypes and false perceptions. – Roy Firestone
