Carl Galie, renown North Carolina conservation photographer, has documented the vanishing beauty of the coal country, focusing his attention on the devastating effect mountaintop removal of coal is having on our nation’s water resources. Carl was awarded the first Art For Conservation Grant in August 2010 for his work on mountaintop removal.  Additional sponsorship has been provided by Appalachian Voices, National Committee for the New River, and the Blessings Project Foundation.

This 50 – plus framed portfolio exhibition is on display in two of the galleries at the Salem College Fine Arts Center through October 21 in Winston-Salem, NC.
