Roberto Dutesco is an internationally acclaimed artist whose work spans over 35 years and over 75 countries. His extraordinary body of photographs from his 25-year journey to capture the beauty and undisturbed freedom of The Wild Horses of Sable Island have been show in exhibitions in the United States, France, Japan, Switzerland, Singapore, Korea, Canada, Brazil....and now, the Wisner House Gallery of Reeves-Reed Arboretum in Summit, New Jersey. Dutesco portrays the wild beauty of these horses as well as the barren and unspoiled qualities of the island, creating a photographic memoir that captures both the soul and the spirit.

The public is invited to meet and enjoy an informal talk with Roberto Dutesco as he shares his stories, on Thursday, September 27, from 6 to 8 pm. Wine and light refreshments will be served. Although there is no fee, the public is asked to RSVP to Doreen Schindler at 908-273-8787 x 1010 or d.schindler@reeves-reedarboretum.org, by Monday, September 24.
