Explore the Colorado Photographic Arts Center’s beautiful new space and our exhibition, Rising and Falling. In it, four photographers help us visualize the impacts of climate change on landscapes and communities across the U.S. as rivers fall and sea levels rise. From Alexander Heilner’s stunning aerial photographs of the Colorado River Basin to Martha Ketterer’s vision of the San Francisco Bay submerged underwater, each artist uses a different photographic approach to tell distinct stories about our precious water resources and the people who depend on them.

The exhibition features artists Alexander Heilner, Kalen Goodluck, Marth Ketterer, and H. Jennings Sheffield. The Artist Panel Talk will feature the artists of Rising and Falling and will be moderated by CPAC Executive Director & Curator Samatha Johnston. Please visit the CPAC website for more information.
