ABC-TV in Chicago interviewed me at the Illinois State Museum where my
show opens Oct 5 (the opening reception, Oct 5 from 5-7pm is open to
the public). The show runs to Feb 1, 2013.

The group show focuses on issues relating to the environment both
external and internal.
I’ll be exhibiting six 32×40 pieces, three from both the Alleys and

Photography Workshop - Saturday, December 1st 10am-2pm
Shooting Alleys & Ruins no. 137, Portal, in Queens, NY
Please reserve early to save a spot – x...@nuez.com - I’m limiting the
class size to 12.
Price: $150 (visa, m/c, check, or cash)
This will be a fun 4 hour class – for all age groups – focusing on
lighting technique. I’ll be disclosing state secrets! Namely, how I
create the images in my Alleys & Ruins series. The class, held in my
studio, will include a power point presentation where I break down my
images, followed by hands on picture taking by all the students, using
my lights and lighting technique. There’s no need to bring a camera –
we’ll all be taking several turns on the same digital camera on a
tripod, and seeing and discussing the results projected on a big screen!
Depending on interest, I may run the same class on Sunday the 20th as
well.
Last year’s class was a big success! Here are some of the reactions
“By far the best workshop I have ever been to! Teaching, then allowing
the students to utilize the information learned immediately really
allowed all the students to grasp the concept! (This also gave me a new
appreciation for the art that Xavier takes the time to create! This is
no joke folks! This art takes true talent to create!) Also, it was
wonderful to meet other passionate photographers! Thanks again!”

“Xavier, your workshop today was great and worth every penny I spent.
Excellent insight into how you create your beautiful work. And an
inspiration. I’m a portrait photographer but some of your Alley & Ruin
techniques are a wonderful addition to my coffer of photographic tools.”

“Thanks so much for opening up your studio and your bag of tricks to
us. Your workshop was amazing. I can’t wait to try out all the stuff I
learned”
