Zoe Strauss: Works-in-Progress Slide show

in , ,

Last October I was lucky enough to find myself in Philadelphia at the same time as one of Zoe Strauss's Works-in-Progress Slide shows. I have been meaning to post the images I took while I was there for some time so here they finally are.

The whole slide show was a really nice experience. Zoe Strauss has a recap of the slide show I went to on her blog. After the show, Zoe told everyone to take the pictures off the wall and keep them at no extra charge. There were also signed laser prints (?) for sale for $5 or $10 and an assortment of postcards. The whole experience was the opposite of many art show at a traditional gallery there was no pretense and inaccessibility of the $100,000 9-foot print. All of that was striped away and what I got in return was very satisfying.

I am excited to announce, although already a week overdue, that I have been included in an exhibition at the Miami Art Museum entitled: Miami Art Museum: The Machine, the Body and the City. It's a great show and even if I were not in it, I would recommend it to any fan of photography.

There isn't too much about it online at this point but there is a write up in the Miami Herald and V Magazine.

I would like to thank guest curator, Andy Grundberg, Peter Boswell Senior Curator at MAM and Charles Cowles for his contributions to the Miami Art Museum.

The exhibition will be up until April 15, 2007 in MAM's Plaza Level Gallery.

Locust Projects annual fundraiser 2006

in , , ,

Tomorrow is the annual fundraiser for Miami cutting edge space Locust Projects. I participated last year and the show was very fun with people racing around to get their favorite artwork after their names are drawn at random. See flyer below.

I have donated one of the pieces from my series "ten convenient stores" that was shown at Art Basel Miami Beach 2005. Please see below for web reference. I hope to see you there tomorrow night.

All enquires please contact Ambrosino Gallery.
