The Arctic: Another World?

Dave Walsh The Arctic: Another World? On Tuesday April 23, 2013, Greenpeace Belgium will launch Arctic: Another World?, a solo exhibition of my polar photography, at the Belgian Senate building in Brussels. Aimed at policymakers, the exhibition runs until the 26th and is not open to the general public - but I’m currently working with Greenpeace and other partners to setup a big public exhibition in Brussels in the coming months - more news on this very soon!

“With his images, photographer Dave Walsh offers a unique look at the Arctic.A beautiful area melting at record speed. With the disappearance of the ice, the dark sea water will absorb more heat, increasing the Earth’s temperatures by several degrees. The North Pole is not a mythical place or “another world” but a threatened area, capable of impacting our lifestyles”.

I’m delighted to share these images with you - my picture of an iceberg, made in Nugatsiaq, West Greenland in 2009, has been featured on the front cover of the March 2013 issue of GEO France. I made the image, of a high altitude cloud ‘erupting’ over a triple-arched iceberg, while sailing by on the Greenpeace icebreaker, Arctic Sunrise.

GEO also features another image of mine in a double spread, the Sleeping Giant, photographed in Kane Basin, Greenland:

Launch Night

On September 13, The Cold Edge opened at The Copper House Gallery in Dublin. It was a wild night - I’m still recovering - and during the weeks afterwards, hundreds of people visited the gallery to see pictures, beautifully printed by the folks at Fire.  On Culture Night, when thousands of people around Ireland flock to galleries, museums and events, the show drew a great crowd. If you managed to make it along - thank you. If you missed out on the fun, and even if the pictures are no longer on the walls, please feel free to drop by The Copper House, where the friendly staff can give you a close look at the prints for yourself. Do let me know if you would like more information. With Christmas on the way, don’t forget thatCold Edge limited edition prints, are available in a variety of formats and sizes: have a look at the selection on The Copper House Gallery website to get a better idea of what we’ve got on offer, with prices starting at €175.  The Copper House will ship the works to you, no matter where you are (on Earth) - so don’t be shy - Cold Edge prints have travelled all over the world, and have lived to tell the tale.

Where you there? Find yourself in the exhibition launch photographs. I’d like to thank Leszek, Orla, Maureen and all the team at The Copper House for turning The Cold Edge into a physical reality, and Duncan Cleary for his great speech on the night, and Leszek for his rousing opener. What did I say? Listen to me here
