now if only they would show my work in my own freaking town.  during the past 12 months i've shown work in pittsburgh, pa; lexington, ky; new york, ny; miami, fl; brattleboro, vt; providence, ri; poughkeepsie, ny; and a few other places that i can't recall right now.  during the past two months i was rejected from two juried shows in boston.  that does not feel good. granted, thirteen months ago (not 12), i was in the lovely prc members show in boston.  that was a good one.  it was particularly good because i could invite friends to go to the opening. going to an art opening is kind of like going to see your friend's band, but instead of loud rock there are photographs and it's much earlier in the evening.  also, your ears don't ring at the end of the night, and you get to eat cheese and snacks.  since i'm about to move my ass over an ocean, i kind of hoped that i could get that kind of photo love from this place i've called home for the past 12 years.  that's not going to happen.  it's sad, but here's to a fresh start (glasses klink).  boston, soon you won't have jim turbert to kick around anymore. fuckers.  

best, 
jim
