The Dan Eldon Traveling Exhibit made a stop in Taos, New Mexico. During the short stay, approximately 900 people, including school classes and youth groups, visited. Many viewers returned to absorb the full impact of the exhibit and all were inspired and touched by Dan's life. The exhibit was sponsored by Gayle Montgomery's Full Circle Studio and funded by a grant from the Taos County Commissioners.

The opening reception was phenomenal! Eighteen local restaurants prepared and donated crowd-pleasing appetizers. Kathy Eldon, Gayle Montgomery and Lyn Rosati gave brief talks. Inspired by Dan's generosity, Lynn has created a "Art for Change" program where Taos locals and visitors will be asked to empty their pocket change (in the spirit of Dan) to purchase art supplies for youth groups and schools.

Twenty local youth were selected to participate. Each received a journal, art supplies and both of the Dan Eldon books ("The Journey is the Destination" and "The Art of Life").

Gayle Montgomery still donates 30% of all proceeds of her "Safari Series," based on Dan's philosophy that "Life is a Safari" to the Creative Visions Foundation. Please visit her at: The Full Circle Studio.

 

Artist, Gayle Montgomery, Gallery Opening — Exhibit is Inspired by the Life and Death of Dan Eldon

Gayle Montgomery's 22 collages are dedicated to and inspired by the life and death of Dan Eldon. Dan was Reuter's youngest photojournalist and was killed in Somalia on July 12, 1993 at the age of twenty-two. He and other journalists arrived at the scene of a U.N. bombing of the suspected headquarters of Mohammed Farah Aidid. Innocents were killed and the mob that remained reacted drastically to the arrival of the journalists; four were killed. Dan achieved prominence for his war photography, but his talents were many. He left behind seventeen journals filled to overflowing with miscellaneous photos, collages, drawings and assorted writings to document his short but productive life. It was these journals and his philosophy that 'safari is a way of life' that inspired Gayle Montgomery's series. The twenty-two collages represent Dan's twenty-two years of life and each piece is Gayle's interpretation of life's many safaris.

Art Divas Gallery is located at 208 Paseo del Pueblo Norte in Taos, New Mexico. Please contact Gayle or visit her web site The Full Circle Studio to purchase Safari art.
