The Story of the Week
Getting to the bottom of that truth requires delving into a story that might have resulted from an artistic collaboration between Ian Fleming and Salvador Dalí. Gamboa’s tale involves secret ore deposits, hidden stocks of Soviet nuclear armaments, the Queen Mary ocean liner, portions of Antarctica, a new version of the Bible, allegations of fake deaths and miraculous resurrections, and a collection of some of the most colorful aliases ever to grace America’s criminal and civil case dockets. (According to court documents, Korem also answers to the names Tzemach Ben David Netzer Korem and Branch Vinedresser.)
"I’ve sworn off contests and portfolio reviews. If people like what I do, then fine, I’m happy with that. However I’m not going to pay so I can beg for acceptance or praise, nor do I need direction or ideas from someone with their own agenda about what I’m doing based on 20 pictures in 20 minutes of knowing me. It’s never been very productive in my experience. The photo-industrial complex has gotten out of hand IMHO. - Mike Peters"
