One of the more well put together art shows I’ve seen. I walked in and said to myself “alright that’s what I’m talking about!”. I was really impressed by this overall and suggest anyone in the Montreal area go and check it out. It was gutsy, it was intelligent, the idea itself is exciting, and we should be supporting more events like these. For more info, visit: www.underpressure.ca

Showing at The Met in New York City, this exhibit displayed life works by photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Edward Steichen, Paul Strand, all of which were American photographers active from 1860 to the late 1970s. My focus was set on pieces from Stieglitz’s composite portrait of Georgia O’Keeffe, I appreciate his obsession as well as his perfection.
Later that day, I was beyond thrilled when we by-chance walked into a room full of Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings. I’ve been long time enthusiastic about Georgia and her work, especially upon learning about Ghost Ranch (where she lived and painted in near-seclusion for the last years of her life). I’ve been planning a trip to Santa Fe to heed to my growing interest in the work she produced there (and of course, to photograph it)
