Greetings to all from beautiful Southern Arizona! I am back from an inspiring trip that includes SPE/Denver during Month of Photography organized by the Colorado Photographic Art Center (CPAC), and NYC to attend the Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD) photo fair. I am grateful to organizers of these enlivening gatherings and look forward to returning to NYC in early September for the art and photography fairs hosted at the Javits Center: Photo Fairs New York, incorporating Photo London sharing the venue with The Armory Show, a cornerstone contemporary art fair in NYC since 1994. |
