Out of town: June 2004 Archives

I received the regular Jen Bekman email newsletter today. At least I think it's regular. Anyway, Bekman previewed an October show by Tema Stauffer. Serendipitously, Stauffer is currently showing in Minneapolis where my wife and I are spending the weekend. Her show is at the Minneapolis Center for Photography at the University of Minnesota. The photos are mainly night shots but with wonderful vibrant color.

Through July 30 at the Nash Gallery

I will be in Minnesota this weekend visiting friends from school. While there I hope to swing by the Weinstein Gallery to see Robert Polidori's show. Polidori shoots for the New Yorker from time to time, though not as often at the overexposed Richard Avedon, sadly. Minn. Public Radio has a short RealAudio interview with Polidori. He talks a bit about the split between art and commerce as well as his thinking on making architectural photographs.

Oddly, the Weinstein Gallery's Web site is just a page on Alec Soth's personal site. Soth's excellent show, Sleeping by the Mississippi, will be there next month.
