•National media reviews on the Tibetan Photo Project
“REWARDING”
-Parade Magazine
Seen by 16 million readers, resulting in 40,000 hits to
http://www.tibetanphotoproject.com

“Their work precisely captures with insight and enthusiasm the life of exiled Tibetans.”
-Bobbie Liegh, Art & Antiques Magazine

•Regional Reviews
"Audiences leave seeing China's treatment of Tibet as a microcosm of how the communist country deals with the world." -The Slice, Colorado Springs

"Tibetan Photo Project is a magic view into a world no Westerner has seen. These unique photographs were created by Tibetan Monks themselves and give voice to their story and culture."
-Scribe, UCCS student newspaper

"Insightful...touching." -GO!

" The photos Mickey got in return document a way of life threatened with disappearance."
- Art Critic Kenneth Baker, San Francisco Chronicle, Art Notes - Feb. 2002

"We believe that this kind of activity will increase education and awareness about Tibet. His Holiness the Dalai Lama is pleased to learn about this and fully supports Joe Mickey's project."
-Tenzin Geyche, Secretary to his Holiness the Dalai Lama


"Since 1949, all but 13 of an estimated 6,000 monasteries have been destroyed by the Chinese government. Adding to the desperation is the fact that China's new president, Hu Jintao, is the former Party Secretary of the Tibet Autonomous Region, and was known to be ruthless in his dealings with the Tibetan people." - Noel Black, Colorado Springs Independent

"The Tibetan Photo Project delivers."
-Norman Shoaf, City Editor, Antelope Valley Press/Weekend Showcase section

The Tibetan Photo Project offers the first photos taken by Tibetan monks living in exile, images of the Dalai Lama, informational texts and rare 1932 pictures of Tibet.

The perspective provided from the modern history of Tibet and China reveals a great deal about the nature of China's future leadership. The lessons have become even more relevant with the rise to power by Hu Jintao, China's former hard-line secretary to Tibet.
