On my birthday, I finally made it over to Yancey Richardson in Chelsea where the current group show, "Easy Rider: Road Trips Through America", is in its final 2 weeks. Here are some personal favorites from the show:
Lee Friedlander, Haverstraw, NY, 1966.
Todd Hido , #2424B, 1999.
and my boyfriend's favorite, which must be seen in person since this tiny image doesn't do it justice:
Joel Sternfeld, The Eagles Kayenta Junior High School at Football Practice, Kayenta, Arizona, Najavo Nation, August, 1986/ 2003.
The show ends September 8th. Check out the press release for more information.

Marina,
That Todd Hido image is splendid and I'm glad that you think so too. That particular photo was the segue for a very French and goofy woman to ask me what I thought of it when I visited the exhibit last month. I said it was lovely. The two of us soon promptly left (to not make out in the elevator, sadly) but to proceed to run around to the other openings - drink wine and mock the fancy fancies when we could not pretend that we were such. I do not know where she has gone to now, though I think she may also share an August birth with yourself, and I am afraid I may have missed her celebratory proceedings.
I hope Nina's artist talk was interesting earlier tonight. I am very sad that I could not have been there to soak in her sexy, serious photojournalism-ness self.
I miss you and New York.
Be happy!
