I recently learned that one of my collectors, Joachim Paiva, had some of his collection on show at the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro in 2008. At that show called “Fotografias Estrangeiras” were two images from my “Passage Perceptions” series.

Fernando Rabelo in his blog Images&Visions wrote a blog posting about the show on September 22, 2008 “Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro shows the work of foreign photographers,” below is my translation from Portuguese:
