Step Gently Out

April 12, 2012 - June 08, 2012

On exhibit in the Edward D. and Ione Auer Library

Prepare to be amazed: This exhibition features stunning close-up photography that invites us to look more closely at the world. In astonishing photographs, Rick Lieder captures the glint of a katydid’s eye, the glow of a firefly, and many more living wonders just awaiting discovery. In this creative collaboration between Lieder and poet Helen Frost, nature and poetry combine for a truly eye-opening glimpse into a micro-world of the delicate intricacies of the natural world.

What would happen if you walked very, very quietly and looked ever so carefully at the natural world outside? You might see a cricket leap, a moth spread her wings, or a spider step across a silken web. Experience nature through the eyes of Lieder and Frost in the Fort Wayne Museum of Art Auer Art Library.
