Greetings collectors, on this unbelievably gorgeous New York City day. I'm sitting in the gallery where many a bird has come to roost for Ornithology, which opens tomorrow at 6pm. That all these birds are currently roosting on the floor rather than the walls is cause for some concern, but my guess is that the place will be transformed by no later than 5:55pm tomorrow. So, no worries!
Like I said last week, Ornithology's presence will be felt here on 20x200 for the duration of the exhibition. The reverse is true too — we've got several 20x200 originals in the exhibition, including original paintings by Echo Eggebrecht, Laura Levine and Christina Muraczewski, plus exclusive photography editions from the likes of Bert Teunissen and Luke Stephenson. It's good stuff, I tell ya!
I'm pretty sure that I'm speaking into the void at this stage, because you've probably clicked off to snap up today's edition, A Dream World Glimmers in the Background of the Soul by the insanely talented Carrie Marill. The even-more-stunning-in-person painting is just about to go up on the wall here, and a detail of it is the image on the postcard for the show, so it seemed a fitting edition with which to get this party started. Right? Right.
Speaking of parties, the install party awaits my input, so I am taking off till tomorrow, when I'll be back with this week's photography edition. I look forward to typing to all of you then.
