Bicycle Love

I first saw Taliah Lempert's Bicycle Paintings at the Brooklyn Flea last summer. I have one of her postcards hanging up in my office. Her paintings just make me happy.

Snow

New York is covered in a blanket of snow and the public schools are actually closed today. I'm excited to get out and do some shooting today.

New York Magazine has a great review of Tillman's newest show at Andrea Rosen. I'm hoping to see it soon.

To Die For

Sondra Gilman, theater producer and educator has one of the most amazing photography collections out there. Her house was featured in New York Social Diaries House series. The top photo features the photograph 'Walking Gun' by Laurie Simmons. The next photo of her stairway has works by Imogen Cunningham and Ray Metzger. She has photos by Sally Mann and Andres Serrano. Take a look at the rest of the tour, it's pretty incredible.
