May Museum Foyer
In celebration of Rodeo Month, Rodeo photographer Louis Basso brings his dynamic eye for snapshotting stallions and his stable hand for shooting stablehands to the May Museum's first ever foyer show. A Nevada native, Louis Basso contributes to Reno Rodeo Magazine and was chosen to create this year's Reno Rodeo Poster (on display). Basso's darkroom prowess can be viewed in both his serene landscape photography and his candid equine shots in this month-long showcase! This show is free to view, but all pieces are for sale.
