Roberto Dutesco (born June 6, 1961) is a Romanian-born Canadian artist, photographer and filmmaker.〔()〕 He travels and works worldwide and resides in his three homes, in Montreal, New York City and São Paulo, Brazil.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Business Profiles and Company Information | ZoomInfo.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Canada’s, Sable Island Wild Horses, Subject of Roberto Dutesco Photography | ARTES MAGAZINE )〕 Dutesco began his career as a fashion photographer in Montreal, Canada. In 1994, he shifted the focus of his work to long-term personal projects that explore his environmental interests and natural subject matter. His photographs of the landscapes, wildlife and horses of Sable Island have been on permanent exhibition since 2006 in Soho, New York City, at two locations (initially at 13 Crosby Street and presently at 64 Grand Street). == Photography == The Wild Horses of Sable Island In 1994, Dutesco traveled to Sable Island, a small island off the coast of Nova Scotia. The island is a narrow, crescent-shaped sandbar with a surface area of about 34 square kilometers (13 square miles) and is home to an estimated 400 feral horses. Before he was allowed to make his journey to the island, the trip required Canadian Coast Guard clearance. His first trip yielded a collection of photographs of the horse sanctuary, which inspired his lifelong project to photograph and film the wild horses.〔 Since then, he has returned to Sable Island six times to document its landscape and wildlife. His intention with this body of work is to heighten awareness for conservation projects. In the early 1990s, he opened his studio in New York City. He spent the majority of his time traveling for his various projects. In the past 20 years, his work has taken him to over sixty countries where he has met and photographed such prominent personalities as Pierre Trudeau, the 14th Dalai Lama and Mikhail Gorbachev.〔〔 After the first trip to Sable Island, Dutesco returned to his work on fashion and art photography. In 1994, he abandoned his commercial work and fully devoted his work to his self-assigned projects: photography, filming and writing. The American Sandscape Series Between 1994 and 2004, Dutesco traveled across the southwestern United States, (California, Utah, New Mexico and Colorado), documenting its “sandscapes.”〔 The 14th Dalai Lama In 2003, Dutesco was asked to create an outdoor exhibition to be installed on the streets of downtown Montreal;〔 the theme for the installation was global peace. He travelled to Dharamshala, McLeod Ganj, in order to secure a private sitting for a photograph of the 14th Dalai Lama to include in the exhibit. Also included in the exhibition were his images of the many young lamas in India. This comprehensive installation, entitled ''Here Is Now'',〔〔〔〔 was installed over a four-city-block radius on the McGill University campus in the summer of 2004. It included over three hundred of Dutesco's photographs. Brancusí’s Endless Column Brancusí’s sculpture the Endless Column was inaugurated in Târgu Jiu, Romania, in 1938 and was restored between the years of 1998 and 2000. In July 2005, Dutesco returned to Romania, where he spent 24 continuous hours photographing the sculpture, resulting in a series of graphic black-and-white visual interpretations of the piece.〔 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「Roberto Dutesco」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
