ARTIST'S BIOGRAPHY |
Courtney Milne is not only a master photographer - he's an artist, author, educator, keynote speaker, and philanthropist. His career has taken him on a global journey that has spanned all seven continents. He has published 12 books of photography, including The Sacred Earth, with a foreword by His Holiness, The Dalai Lama. Milne's multi-media shows have attracted audiences worldwide, and his photographs have been shown in more than 200 exhibitions. His limited edition collections are held by more than 25 galleries, museums and universities.
Milne's lifework was publicly acknowledged in June 2005, when he received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Regina, Canada. This award recognized his role as an ambassador of the land, and his depiction of the way its grandeur nourishes the human spirit and confronts us with our responsibility to respect it, care for it, and live with integrity upon it.
Some of Milne's many awards include the Gold Medal for Distinction in Photography from the Canadian Association for Photographic Arts, and a nomination for one of Canada's highest honors, the Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts.
