Salon des Refuses(July 1-22)had a reception in conjuction with the AIHA MHR awards reception. In the future, I hope the Salon show gets more awareness. Thanks to the UAG, I finally got to show my works, after all these years!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764031298725301479.post-411336390305316672011-07-24T06:18:00.428-04:002011-07-24T06:18:00.428-04:00The color & condition of the AIHA walls in sev...The color & condition of the AIHA walls in several of the rooms really worked against a good deal of the work. This has traditionaly been my favorite venue for the regional but somehow I found myself distracted from the art this year. Hughes did a great diservice to much of the work by her placement & groupings. A very dissappointing show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764031298725301479.post-41899874889094356542011-07-23T09:18:51.257-04:002011-07-23T09:18:51.257-04:00thank you for making some salient points and putti...thank you for making some salient points and putting my feelings into words. it's nice to know i wasn't the only one who felt that the best work was overshadowed by a sea of mediocrity.s.m. smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07761336227413827542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764031298725301479.post-21970341609214937412011-07-22T13:09:40.546-04:002011-07-22T13:09:40.546-04:00Same here, the layout in some rooms was a bit of a...Same here, the layout in some rooms was a bit of a problem to me. One of Mark McCarty's piece was on display at the 33rd Photo Regional and it makes a much stronger case with its 2 companion pieces at the AIHA, unfortunately placed vertically. Many pieces were really way way below reasonable eye level. Not going to complain too much though, my 2 photos were in the "abstract/color" space, there was good breathing room here.-Shttp://barre.menoreply@blogger.com
