What: Documenting China: Being a Professional Photographer in the Middle Kingdom
When: Wed Oct 19
Time: 4pm-6pm
Where: Room 208N, North House, Munk School of Global Affairs, 1 Devonshire Place

I think some of you went to Ryan Pyle's talk about his Middle Kingdom Ride. I thought some of you might be interested in this one, too ;)

You can register with this link: http://webapp.mcis.utoronto.ca/EventDet ... ntid=10746

This is the event description from their website:

Quote:
Canadian born, award winning, documentary photographer Ryan Pyle first visited China in 2001. After a 3 month trip around the country he was hooked. He has never left since. It was very much Ryan's first trip to China that inspired him to enter the discipline of photography, and since then his imagery has graced the pages of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Time, Newsweek, Fortune, The Sunday Times Magazine and the Financial Times Magazine. Ryan will visit the Asian Institute to speak about his work, his career to date and what it is like working in China for the world's leading publications.

Born in Toronto, Canada, Ryan Pyle spent his early years close to home. After obtaining a degree in International Politics from the University of Toronto in 2001, Ryan realized a life long dream and traveled to China on an exploratory mission. In 2002 Ryan moved to China permanently and in 2003 began taking freelance newspaper and magazine assignments. In 2004 Ryan became a regular contributor to the New York Times. In 2009 Ryan was listed by PDN Magazine as one of the 30 emerging photographers in the world. Ryan Pyle is an award winning photographer, television presenter, filmmaker and author. Ryan is based full time in Shanghai, China.

If you don't know Ryan Pyle you might want to have a look at some of his work.

Although images on the web doesn't do the prints justice.

I wonder if this is any different from the session Ryan Pyle gave a few months ago. Ryan (Metrix) I remember seeing you at that session too :)

This one sounds different as the last one was about his trip and movie of him and his brother circumnavigating China on 2 motorcycles.
