Introduction

Lisa Law has been a photographer for over fifty years documenting life as she sees it wherever she goes. In the Sixties she photographed fledgling musical bands and marched against the War in Viet Nam. In 1967, along with 10,000 others, she celebrated at the Gathering of the tribes at a Human Be-In in San Francisco. She lived in the mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico, capturing images of the mushroom people of Huautla de Jimenez. From there she documented the back to the land movement and the communes of Northern New Mexico. At Woodstock she helped feed 160,000 people along with Wavy Gravy and the Hog Farm and shot a super 8 movie at the same time. In the deserts of Arizona she helped the Navajo weavers resist relocation by the BIA and Peabody Cole and in El Salvador she was a driver for Pastors for peace delivering aid to the refugees living in make shift houses at the city dump. She took a train from the magical village of Cusco to Machu Picchu to document the ancient hand hewn stone temples in Peru. She is thrilled to share some of her artistic photographs of many varied subjects. Her most recent works include the hand carved sand caves of New Mexico, and the movement to end the war on drugs in the US.
