Yancey Richardson: Dreamweavers

It must be the rainy summer here in New York that has me drawn to water photography of late. And the dealers. A number of summer group shows have revolved around water, and though "Dreamweavers" at Yancey Richardson gallery is not water specific, water plays a central role in many of the included photos, particularly this one by Anthony Goicolea. Another water-oriented Goicelea self-portrait was featured in the Yosso Milo show "Pool Party" which ends today. The Yancey Richardson show also includes photos by Gregory Crewdson (though in a somewhat different vein than Twighlight ) and Lisa Kereszi, who recently showed her catalog of Goveror's Island at ...

This has turned out to be a rather self-referential post. Giociola and Kereszi appear to be up and coming photographers popping up in multiple locations over the summer. I've only been looking at fine art photography for a couple of years, so this is the first opportunity I've had to see an artist's profressional progression come to anything resembling fruition. I think it's an indication of my own growth in appreciation to finally have cataloged enough names and images to even pick up on that subtle process.
