The Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre Nashville will
host David Robert Farmerie for a seminar titled “Vision,” on March 15th
from 1-3pm.
Nashville is more than just the music capital of the
world, it is also home to a wide variety of artists: painters, photographers,
filmmakers, designers, sculptors and more. The Church of Scientology strives to
help these aspiring artists, by arranging seminars for them delivered by
professionals.
“Artists uplift society,” says Corinne Sullivan, president of
the church, “Our founder, L. Ron Hubbard, knew that artists influence others
and that this could be positive or negative. If artists are doing well, they
can uplift people and the society will flourish.”
That is why the church will host a free seminar for artists,
delivered by professional photographer David Robert Farmerie. The seminar will
give an in-depth understanding of the creative process and the importance of
personal vision as an artist, for anybody who desires to create passionately.
According to Farmerie’s website, “…David quickly established
himself as a rising professional. Discontent, he followed his passion for
telling stories, and immersed himself into the coveted territories of
photojournalism.”
Farmerie has photographed a virtual who’s who of world
leaders and the events shaped by them, including three U.S. Presidents, and
several Presidential races. His camera also bore witness to the Solidarity
Movement in Poland and the Peace Conferences between the Zapatista
Revolutionary Group and the Mexican Government. His career diversified even
further with clients such as BBC Television, Paramount Pictures, The Broadway
Series and Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre.
The Huntsville
Museum of Art Red Clay Survey awarded Farmerie as one of the most influential
artists of Southern Contemporary Art in 2012. He is a founding member of
SouthLight, a salon of eight established photographers from the United States and
Europe, all now residing in Nashville, Tennessee.
Farmerie is also an educator in photography. He’s lectured
at prestigious centers of learning such as Temple University, Columbia
University, University of Texas, DuPage University, Washington University and
Webster University. In March, he will travel to New York City to lecture on
behalf of Leica Camera.
The seminar titled “Vision” will be delivered by Farmerie on
March 15th from 1-3pm at the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre
Nashville. To find out more about the Church of Scientology’s upcoming
