An image of Ozone Park from my project on Queens has been selected by judges Stephen Shore and Harvey Stein for inclusion in the annual group photography exhibition at Garrison Art Center. The show will open this Friday, September 3, with a reception from 6 - 8 pm. The varying work should be interesting.

The exhibition will run through September 26, in the Balter and Gillette Galleries. Garrison Art Center is located at 23 Depot Square on Garrison's Landing in Garrison, NY. Gallery Hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm. For more information please call 845-424-3960 or visit www.garrisonartcenter.org

I can't even explain how much I love postcards. So needless to say how great it was to open my mailbox and see this today! Such a nice surprise, especially since the only other things I got were a bill and a casino rewards flyer addressed to the previous tenant. Despite the recent NYC heat, it would be pretty nice to be there right now!

Wow, I have been gone for a while. It has been one month exactly since my last post. July has been a busy, busy month... will be posting some new things soon!

Klea McKenna

Klea McKenna was recently selected by Aperture's Lesley A. Martin, for the 3rd Curator's Choice Award of Jen Bekman's Hey, Hot Shot! competition. McKenna describes her recent project Slow Burn as "an ongoing series of experiments" which in my opinion results in some really beautiful work (that I had not seen before today). Instead of writing about it myself, take a look at what Ms. Martin writes here and take a look at more of Klea's work here (and be sure to read her excellent statement).

InOrbit NY

Some of my Queens images are featured on InOrbit New York today. It is a great new site edited by James Turnley and Bryan Formhals featuring photography and other things about NYC. Be sure to check it out.

This Thursday

Will Steacy's show, Down These Mean Streets opens this Thursday at Michael Mazzeo Gallery. I have been a fan of his work, especially this project for a while now. This should be a great show - not to be missed.

Also, be sure to check out Summer Staged over at Foley Gallery (at their brand new location at 548 W. 28th, 2nd floor), which is also opening. Artists in the show include Tribble & Mancenido, Steven B. Smith, Amy Stein, and several others.
