ACP Artist Talk: Paris to Marrakech

Original Broadcast: Oct 24 at 3PM

This video is an edited version of the live broadcast from October 24.

Paris to Marrakech is about a journey from the modern, progressive culture of Paris France through Spain and Portugal and into Morrocco. The journey overlapped with the month of Ramadan which provided a strong contrast between western and Islamic culture. Join Sam Dobrow as he shares with you the cultural journey he took with his youngest daughter, Jordan, upon her graduation from high school.

This portfolio has been assembled into a limited edition book of the same title. The book was produced as a fine art print on demand edition. The book is no longer available as a print on demand book. There are two books still available from the original production and include a signed original print of the view from Marie Antoinette’s bedroom in Versailles, FR. Contact Sam to purchase one of the remaining books.
