It’s rare for a professional photographer to give his work away for free, but five decades worth of Marc Silber’s images can now be downloaded in an ebook.
SILBER EXPLAINS: “I want to show others what I’ve seen, that’s my passion.”
However, he is quick to add, “I’m a working artist – I still retain all rights to my photos and of course would love for viewers to purchase my actual prints…but I decided to make it easy to get the feeling of my work by offering some of it as an ebook.”
He also says the idea of having the ebook released just ahead of his exhibition is a parallel to a musical artist releasing a CD and then going on tour.
The exhibition will show a variety of images from widespread backdrops such as Paris, Big Sur and Mexico.
