Through late April.......

This show is a reboot (not rehash) of the successful show the three of us did at the Paul Paletti Gallery in Louisville last fall.

Hi Jan and Kirk,
Congratulations! Sounds like a great exhibit and I'm sure it is. I'll put it on the calendar in case a southern migration develops.

I was one of the 100 or so there on Friday night and the work was wonderful. “How was it?” she asked, when I got back home. “Breathtaking,” I said. The print-making and compositions were absolutely wonderful. For this photog, inspiring.

Sounds like a great exhibit - and I, too, will put this on my list if I can swing a visit to S.F. while its still up.

This sounds like some of the successful exhibitions in the 60's and 70's; several participants, often three, presenting different visions and techniques. Also a treat and education for the viewing audience.

Kudos to your curator, and of course the participants! Wish I lived closer.

Thanks, Jan. So, you three were the curators. That's the way to go when possible; especially when it comes to sequencing. How many prints in the show?

Still too far away for me, sadly. Pitch the show to the CCP in Tucson!
