Old Main Gallery is pleased to present the work of acclaimed Bozeman photojournalist Louise Johns in the upcoming exhibition: “For the Love of Horses,” a photographic journey that celebrates the bond between people and horses. An Opening Reception will take place Friday, May 4th from 5–7pm. This event is free and open to the public.
“People have all kinds of relationships with horses,” says Johns. “For many, horses are a necessity for work on the land. For others, they are performers, athletes, a source of pride. For some they are therapists and healers. And for most, they are a source of wisdom, purpose, and comfort. For me, they are the root of my being, my most trusted friends and my greatest teachers.”
Johns is a freelance photographer and a National Geographic Young Explorer living in Bozeman. Her current work concentrates on the relationship between people and wilderness in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. She has explored these issues in India, Chile and Botswana. Johns tells stories in an intimate, sensitive and respectful way. Through photography, video and writing she studies and looks for stories about people who are doing work for the common good of humanity and wild landscapes.
