the appearance of being active

Tomorrow should be a good day of sunlight so I am strongly leaning to "bringing in" the first onion skin anthotype.

What follows is, admittedly, just the ins and outs of recent exhibitions for record keeping.

Last month I was able to exhibit Forty-six at IceCube gallery in Denver, Colorado loosely part Denver's Month of Photography. The exhibit, Icebreaker 4 was juried by Nora Burnett Abrams, the associate curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver.

Also last month, the Annual Works On Paper exhibit at Rosewood Art Center's gallery came down. I was able to sow three anthotypes including Somnambulist #3 (Cut Grass Poultice) and the tow little saffron anthotypes, Nightie Negligee (Barbie) and Sleeper Set Pajamas (Ken). Somnambulist #3 was selected for and award of merit by juror Robert Robbins, Chair of Drawing and Printmaking, as well as a professor in the fine arts department at the Columbus College of Art and Design.




Later this month I will be installing work at the Riffe Gallery in Columbus for the exhibit Photography's Back to the Future curated by Catherine Evans of the Columbus Museum of Art. Look for installation shots later this month on this blog. The work included in this exhibit happens to be all vandyke brown, specifically Forty-six, Mis-mitosis and Don't Take This Personally.

Columbus Dispatch Review for Portraits in Ohio at Ohio Arts Council's Riffe Gallery

Here's a link to Christopher Yates' review of "Here's Looking at You: Portraits in Ohio" at the Riffe Galley in Columbus. There is definitely a preference or bias for photography in the review and Yates begins with a quote by Richard Avedon.

On another note, tonight the stars and planets aligned and I finished printing the Governor's Awards images. It should have been easy but I got the itch to tone the photographs in palladium and gold. Gold cools the warmness of the Vandyke brown in the midtones and highlights and palladium makes the ground a rich, dense, chocolate color.
