Eyes on Williamsburg:

Let’s say something interesting about surveillance. I’ll be gathering my observations about the reactions to my work from the Close Distance show at the Mills Gallery pretty soon.

Museums have fueled the destruction of far more knowledge than they have preserved

A group show at the Mills Gallery I’m involved with (a video installation) — I rarely show at galleries and let me point out that I don’t think there is anything special in this decision. Yet it’s been a reluctant, uncomfortable journey for me to approach the white cube again. Let’s say something wise about questioning your own dogma and let’s finish by saying something hopeful about risk-taking and autodidactism.

(Early last month, the Harvard Film Archived screened Hollis Frampton’s “Hapax Legomena” cycle but alas I have yet to see Zorn’s Lemma projected in Boston.)

recentering

After a hiatus of many moons I’ve finally knocked the cobwebs from this space. Let’s begin a conversation shall we. 

I am not a hunter and gatherer: I don’t walk with my camera strapped to my neck looking for the world to reveal itself to me but if I was and this happened to me, this moment, this image… I would take it as a sign from the photo gods that I was doing the right thing.

I am primarily interested in realism and its dilemmas. I also curate/organize events at Spectacle: a collaborative performance space for music and visual art located the Brookside area of Jamaica Plain, Boston.
