The Northeast New York Coalition for Occupational Safety and Health, is bringing an exciting photography exhibit, LIFE’S WORK, featuring the work of photojournalist Earl Dotter to the Capital Region. The exhibit is part of a national tour of Earl Dotter’s work over the last 50 years.

This exhibit contains photographs from Mr. Dotter’s recently published book, LIFE’S WORK, A Fifty Year Photographic Chronicle of Working in the U.S.A (AIHA PRESS). His work is powerful and showcases the nature of work in America. From the Appalachian coal fields to the emerging nanotech industry, from construction to health care, and from our nation’s farms to the rescue and recovery work of emergency responders on Ground Zero, Mr. Dotter’s compelling photographs  personalize the dignity and dangers of work in America. We would love to see you at some of the events we will be having in April in commemoration of Workers’ Memorial Week:

An Opening Reception will be held on Monday, April 22nd from 5pm to 7pm at YouthFX. 25 Warren St., Albany, NY
