Twenty-four hours later, here are some of the images that are still floating around in my brain. Pervading themes in all the shows: fire, explosions, animals (or traces of animals), rethought still lives, and the color orange.

Martin Parr and Kathy Ryan proved that the 40×50 c-print is alive and well, and Lesley Martin was looser, propping and pinning up work. Tim Barber threw up his entire print collection, but I liked the flea market aspect of it; I found a nice egg and a toaster on fire. And the Tierney Fellowship show killed it; Thomas Bangsted is my new favorite. Check out that goat.

Read some other reviews by Joerg here and here and one by Robert Wright. And I’ll do one more post with some goss and a picture of me on Jen Bekman’s lap. After that, it’s time to talk about Look3. We’re taking the photo festival train to Charlottesville, folks!
