Congratulations Jerry!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;One of my \u201cbucket list\u201d items was to be published in what I consider to be one of the most prestigious magazines dedicated to the promotion of fine art photography in the world today: LensWork Magazine. I have been a subscriber since 2004. In fact, I credit the podcasts of editor Brooks Jensen as one of the early influences on my artistic training. There are so many great, brief articles related to photography; more than enough food for thought.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I am humbled and honored to say that my series, \u201cMoorish Influences\u201d, has been accepted and will appear in the December issue #115 of LensWork. My interview and images will also appear on the Extended Edition dvd. And, one of my images even made the cover of the issue!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">This series is an exploration of the progression of the impact the Moors had on Spanish architecture from 711AD to 1492AD. This impact can best be described as ordered repletions, radiating structures, and rhythmic metric patterns. These designs captured in my work are based in spirituality. The Islamic view of the world in general emphasizes and symbolizes the infinite nature of the one God. For them, there was an infinite pattern of forms that extend beyond the world and symbolizes the infinite essence of God.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">I would like to thank John Paul for his training, guidance and support over the years. Also, I would like to thank my fellow Next Steppers for their encouragement and artistic suggestions that have helped me solidify my goals and techniques.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">My dedicated perseverance and determination continues to sustain my passion and my vision. I look forward to my continued growth as I explore new projects and experiment with new visions. And thanks for indulging me in my moment of success!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lenswork.com\/previewpages\/lw115\/lw115preview.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"s1\">Order your copy here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jerrygrassophotos.com\/moorish-influences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View Jerry&#8217;s\u00a0statement here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jerrygrassophotos.com\/moors_slider\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"s1\">Find out more about Jerry Grasso here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alumni Jerry Grasso&#8217;s photographs are featured in the current issue of LensWork magazine.
