The exhibition of selected works by Chiarenza includes images taken from two recent books, The Peace Warriors of 2003 and Solitudes, an expression of his response to current world events.

Chiarenza is also coming out with a new book, Interaction: Verbal/Visual, which is due out in February. This work is Chiarenza's senior thesis of a half-century ago and is limited to 250 signed copies.
