A Message from our President
Dear PAI Members,
The dreidel is put away for another year and Christmas Season, the entire 3 months of it, is done. All that
torn wrapping paper is in the recycle, along with some of the gifts. The needles on that once fresh tree
have found their way into the bottoms of your bare feet and all those outdoor decorations that looked
great in December seem a bit sad in the middle of January! It means only one thing... it's a new year and
the New Year is a time to take stock, celebrate accomplishments, ponder possibilities of things yet to be
done and look toward a better future.
How many weeks, days, hours will it take for all those New Year's resolutions to fall by the wayside, and
just how far into January can people still wish you a happy New Year?
HAPPY NEW YEAR. !!!!
And besides all that, April is only three months away!
Don't miss the January 29, 2015 PAI Viviane Moos photography presentation.

PAI presents award winning International Documentary and Fine Arts photographer –
Viviane Moos -- Please join PAI and share the way Viviane sees the world and experience
her impassioned and unique photographic work.
Viviane writes:
As a photojournalist with the ability to create a genuine connection with people, my work is my
passion and my passion is telling stories about the world we live in.
Raised in Brazil and Europe and traveling since childhood, I became a photographer so that I
could share the way I see the world; using my camera as a communication tool, my heart, my
eye and my experience guide me.
Better than speaking about my work, allow me to share the words of two noted colleagues:
"Viviane Moos takes you down the street less traveled by showing images from her "Brazilian
Street Diary" a brilliant account of child street gangs in Brazil she shot over 21 years ago. Shot
in the tradition of Bresson’s gritty black and white, Viviane documented a much different world
than the typical North American street photographer could capture. Passion, evocative, and
emotional are just three words to describe the project of this acclaimed journalist.
-- David Brommer, Photographer & B&H Event Space Director
"Viviane Moos' photography provides an x-ray of society's soul."
-- Peter Mann, international coordinator World Hunger Year/Harry Chapin Media Awards
Please come meet Viviane Moos on January 29, 2015, and hear in her own words her deep
conviction that nothing is impossible. !!

. . . your pace is set by the light,
the on and off of everything,
he clatter and the silence,
the stop and go of it,
the dark and light of it,
the chiaroscuro,
the shadow falling on you and the shadow suddenly dispelled for you,
the shadow dancing with you
the way the light dances with you.
The Lion at Noon inside you
is steady: know your tempo
is set by the light,
paced by the light,
the steady light of the lion at noon,
no matter how it looks,
no matter how the light appears.
