Books Inc. Opera Plaza welcomes artist, writer, and activist Isabella La Rocca González for an eye opening reading and discussion of her photographic book Censored Landscapes: The Hidden Reality of Farming Animals. Censored Landscapes is a compelling long-term photographic project that unveils the hidden reality of animal agriculture. Photographs, essays, poetry, and research together tell a factual story about the most abusive industry of the 21st century.
Isabella La Rocca González’s lens captures the haunting beauty of landscapes that portray the animal agricultural industry. A number displayed with each image represents the lives imprisoned within the facility, drawing attention to the magnitude of suffering behind the banal exteriors. Portraits of nonhuman animals who have been confined in such facilities are emblematic of the vast number of animals whose individuality, sentience, and beauty are obliterated by the industry.
Censored Landscapes maintains a lyrical quality through evocative photographs, poetry, and personal narrative. The project also provides a robust basis in verifiable facts and scientific research. Readers are encouraged to confront the intricate web of connections between animal agriculture, animal suffering, environmental devastation, worker exploitation, human health, economic political structures, and social justice. This book is a call to action, a revelation of the invisible, and an opportunity to see, feel, and make a difference. Isabella La Rocca González is an artist, writer, and activist based in the United States. As the daughter of immigrants, she strives to reconcile values from her indigenous Mexican roots with her European heritage. Awards for her work include the Ferguson Grant from the Friends of Photography. Her photographs have been exhibited internationally, including a solo show at the Center for Photography in Woodstock. Her creative nonfiction works have been published in various outlets. Her screenplay, Fugue 9, was chosen as a finalist for the 2008 Sundance Screenwriters Lab. She received her BA in fine arts from the University of Pennsylvania, and her MFA in photography from Indiana University.

Golden Gate Park

112***09

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. Most tourists will not go to this attraction specifically, but since we are traveling independently, we can visit it in a more relaxed manner. The environment design of this park is unparalleled and it is worth checking out.

Fisherman's Wharf

Hose Pereira

It&rsquo;s a very specific place. There are a lot of shops, attractions ant amusements. You can observe sea lions right next to you beneath a peer. Nearly 1000 feet east is Girardely chocolate factory.

Lombard Street

泰迪小熊

Came here on September 24, 2017.

This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and is definitely one of the must-see attractions when visiting San Francisco.

Lombard Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section of the road is a steep slope, but it is designed into eight hairpin turns, and flowers are planted on both sides of the road.

If you need to take a nine-turn effect, you must stand on Leavenworth Street, which is low in terrain.

Chinese people can drive in the western United States where San Francisco is located with a translated driver&#39;s license. If you can drive in San Francisco, you might as well go and experience the feeling of driving through Lombard Street yourself.
