Boulat Foundation?

Hello,
I’m wondering if anyone has a clear understanding of the Boulat Foundation, it’s focus, and what it means in practical terms?
I know it’s only been a short time since her passing, and many details are probably unknown.

On a side not, I’m working on a graduate degree in photography (PJ track) at Ohio University’s School of Visual Communication. For my master’s project, I’m going to propose a short multimedia piece on Alexandra.

The piece will focuses on her life, work, vision and philosophy. This piece will only run about half and hour, so it will be pretty focused on her personal vision.

Right now, I’m in the very beginning stages of my research, trying to
find everything I can that Ms. Boulat published.

When the time comes I would like to interview those who knew her best.

I’m just looking for direction right now. I need to put together a
list of people who would be good to interview. Fellow shooters,
editors and others who knew her well. People who can speak to why she
did what she did. People who can speak to her vision and philosophy of
shooting.

In addition to her photographs, I’m also looking for audio she
recorded, and anything (audio/video) where she narrates a piece or
speaks to the issues I’m trying to present in my piece.  The best
possible piece is one that includes her, speaking of her own work, in
her own words.

I know she’s only been gone a little while, and it’s too soon to
interview folks for the piece.  I want to spend the next 9 months or
so just doing research, then do my interviews 9 months to 1 year from
now.

If anyone can give me a little direction, or if any of you knew her well and would like to participate, let me know.

I never knew her. And now, I’m getting to know her work very well. I’m touched by the life she lived. My condolences to all who knew her well.
