Artist's Statement

Peter Brown

FROM THE 2021 STUDENT NOMINATIONS:

“He is, at his core, compassionate, a communicator, and intellectual, but very down-to-earth and approachable.”

“His excitement about photography as he speaks is contagious and has led most of his students to publish books of their work, participate in group and solo exhibitions around the world, and have their work acquired by museums.”

“I have worked in higher education at top universities for over four decades and in all those years of overseeing teaching, I have never seen anything that compares with the diverse and tightly knit community that Peter Brown has created at Rice University in Houston.”
