© Juliana BeasleyFor my money, Juliana Beasley is one of the most talented photographers walking the planet. Beyond being an admirer of her scary good talent, I feel very lucky to count her as a great friend. Juliana is 100% hoot-n-holler and a constant source of kick-in-the-pants inspiration. Beginning this Thursday you will be able to see prints from her beautiful Eyes of Salamanca series at

MoCP Recap
Posted on 08:54 by election
Amy, Jon and Brian, three sheets to the windI have been a nomad of late and haven't had time to reflect on some recent adventures. Freshest in my mind is last Thursday's opening of Beyond the Backyard at the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago. Karsten Lund did an amazing job of curating a strong group exhibition that was true to the theme and full of individually interesting

© Andrew MiksysThis Thursday the Nelson Hancock Gallery will be hosting the opening of two shows by two very talented artists, Jon Gitelson and Andrew Miksys. Jon's work is smart, funny and personal. It is part Larry David and part Martin Parr, but really it is pure Gitelson. I am super excited he decided to come to town for the opening. Andrew's photography is rich, classically stylized and

The End of a Crazy Week
Posted on 15:26 by election
Spectrum of Life © Matthew PillsburyThe week behind was a little crazy as I tried to complete my Domesticated monograph. I took another trip to Matamoras to make a picture and I have been meeting with graphic designers so I can get cracking on the look and feel of the monograph. I've also been scrambling to get new prints together for a show of my Stranded work at SMoCA. It's hard out here for

Party Like a Rockstar
Posted on 09:44 by election
© Melissa Auf Der MaurIf there is one thing I don't do, it's party like a rockstar. On certain nights I let go and may approach something akin to the party habits of a folkstar or a polkastar, but usually my only incursion into rock bacchanalia involves sitting on my couch watching Rock of Love on VH1. This weekend, however, is all about the rock and or roll music. Tonight I am going to see

Making the Scene

© Kohei YoshiyukiSummer doesn't officially end until September 21, but all the popular markers that spell the true end of the season are upon us. The kids are back in school, something resembling a breeze has returned to the New York City night, and Chelsea gallerists have come home from the Hamptons and opened their shops for business. Like any good fan of art, gratuitous schmoozing, and free

Woman Aircraft Worker © 1942 David BransbyLabor Day weekend I will be doing some serious laboring. A good friend is getting married in Washington, DC, on Sunday so I will be making the three and half hour trek down I-85 for the big event. Of course, this means I will miss the opening of The Interactive Landscape at Mt. Tremper Arts. I am happy my friend found true love, but it sucks the

Any time I am covering that much ground on the highways I take along my tripod and the RZ just in case there are some stranded motorists along the way.

Basque'ing in a Post Vacation Glow

We just returned to NYC yesterday after ten fabulously lazy days in Spain and the beautiful Basque Coast. I am happy to report that one can subsist on a steady diet of wine and ham for over a week without much incident. I will post some travel pictures later, but right now I am getting ready for the Road Trip show at Mixed Greens. I have a great idea for the presentation of the Stranded images

Sketches of Spain

© Irving PennIf not for the decades of cocaine and hard partying that took his life in 1991, Miles Davis would have turned 81 yesterday. I can't offer anything new about the man or his numerous contributions to the development of modern music that haven't already been postulated and debated ad nauseam, so I won't even try. I mention Miles' birthday only because we are about to head to

Great stuff, but we were really just biding our time waiting for the main event: Zoe Strauss' big solo show, If You Reading This, at Silverstein Gallery.Zoe's prints looked great and the images were all very strong. And, there was a decidedly un-Chelsea feel to the festivities. It
