My photograph of the Revere Sugar Refinery in Red Hook was selected to be part of the Brooklyn Museum's crowd curated exhibition, entitled Click!. Starting tomorrow, June 27th, you can see my work hanging on the walls of the Museum. For more information, click here
I had the privilege of getting to check out the new venue being built by the guys over at Union Hall yesterday. As you can see from the above photograph, it's a huge space which will surely bring some big name acts to the Gowanus. Located on 7th street between 2nd and 3rd avenues, it's convenient to the R/M and F trains as well as the super reliable G train at Smith and 9th. Construction is moving quickly and they are hoping to open by early September -- and you can be sure that they will be enforcing a strict no stroller policy at the door.
check out the wnyc video of jake talking about photography and nyc - i make my appearance at T - 30 seconds!
in you're in nyc be sure to pick up a copy of the latest L magazine featuring a shot of mine on the cover.
I've got a couple of pictures in the L magazine's annual photo issue, which comes out on May 7th. Shown above is last years cover, featuring an excellent shot by fellow photographer / blogger Dalton Rooney.
According to an email I got from the editor, there will be a group show featuring all the contributing photographers on Monday, May 5th 2008 from 6-8pm at the 68 Jay Street Bar, located conveniently at 68 Jay St in DUMBO (F train to York St.)
Spent some time wandering the brooklyn coast with Jake on Saturday - lots of abandoned boats. Many more then i had remembered from the last time I visited this remote area, it's mostly accessibly from a rest stop off the Belt Parkway. Else you could ride a bike along a rickety bike path beginning in Bay Ridge and ending somewhere around the edge of Queens.
Been doing some work on getting the backyard up to standard. Should be easier this year as most of the really difficult work was done last year. Hopefully we'll be able to grow a wider variety of flowers and even perhaps some buckets of vegetables.
Here's two shots of the yard when we first started the renovation project.
A great slide show by photographer Jill Freedman over on NYT today.
