Photographer Jonno Rattman presented his work “The Ride of Their Lives” in the Campus Center Art Gallery during lunch on November 17th, 2015. Also attending was Burkhard Bilger who wrote about the context behind the photos in his article in The New Yorker. The photo series introduces a very different world from ours in which children “prepare for the world’s most dangerous sport” (Bilger, The New Yorker) of rodeo.
“Can you explain the context behind this photograph?” (Jonna Rattman)
“What is a cultural difference you found most striking in the world of rodeo?” (Burkhard Bilger)
