what can i tell you about the exhibits. i liked some more than others, and apparently i liked some that were widely disliked by the popular and learned bloggers. that is okay by me. i don't need their approval. i would, however, like to have their approval more often than not. i guess that makes me a sucker. i can deal with that for now.
i saw some pictures made by irina rozovsky (whom i recently met) in tim barber's curated showcase. i don't believe she's from boston originally, but she went to school at massart, and she lives and works here. she is also a fellow NEO featured artist (look at 2006/2007).
the main reason i went to new york was not for the festival. i went to drop off my own picture for a less prestigious photo event that will be taking place this thursday evening at ceres gallery in chelsea. you will notice my name in the sea of names on their list for their 8th annual juried show. if you are a new york person, or if you are in a new york state of mind, you should go there and gawk at the art. also, you should talk to me while you are there. please say something nice.
yours truly,
