In addition, he leads a workshop titled ''Sight & Insight'' in which he teaches his personal methods for selecting photographic subjects. Wimberley's photographs have appeared in over 70 exhibitions, multiple publications, and over 500 collections. He received the 2010 Oliver Rock Art Photography Award〔(The Oliver Rock Art Photography Award )〕 for his self-published book of American Indian rock art titled ''Evidence of Magic''. ==Life and work== John Wimberley was born in Paget, Bermuda and then moved to Alameda, CA in 1948 where he lived until 1963. At age 13, Wimberley had a boundary-dissolving experience while sitting in a bathtub. Regarding this experience, he says, "I found myself to be the entire universe. After that experience, I realized very deeply that in this life I wanted to examine, if you will, the nature of reality."〔Brooks Jensen, Interview With John Wimberley, ''Lenswork'', November - December, 2000, 53 - 66.〕 In August 1963 he enlisted in the United States Navy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Wimberley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
