We first met <a href="http://www.mathiasdelattre.com/" target="_blank">Mathias De Lattre</a>, a talented young portrait photographer, at a portfolio reading organised by <a href="http://www.fetart.org" target="_blank">Fetart</a>. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
After seeing and loving the series of photos he had taken of <a href="http://www.mathiasdelattre.com/AetD-maquette.html" target="_blank">his mother’s greyhounds</a>, and learning about the scandalous treatment that similar races (Podencos and Galgos) endure in Spain, I decided to organise an exhibition using the great photos that Mathias had taken of these races of dogs, saved from torture and death in Spain.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The exhibition will start on 21st April at the Belle Juliette gallery in Paris. Mathias and I have decided to publish <strong>a</strong> <strong>beautiful 40-page catalogue, designed by the <a href="http://www.neutre.be/" target="_blank">Neutre</a> graphic design agency in Belgium, with a limited edition of 1,000 copies printed</strong>.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Part of the proceeds of the sale will go to the non-profit groups that do an <em>incredible</em> job saving these magnificent dogs with the little funds they have.</p>
